¡Hola, amigos! Let's celebrate today by re-upping (is "re-upping" even a real word?) this collection of strange new takes on trad Mexican musics:PunkmMariachi
and an album of Chicano parodies of punk rock classics:
Manic Hispanic "The Recline of Mexican Civilization"
and finally, 2 collections that have absolutely nothing to do with Mexico, but were requested to be re-posted, so here 'tis:
Seattle World's Fair 1962 Postcard Records
Ray Schmitt's music for tree-huggers
Great stuff. Still pondering the difference between punk mariachi and mariachi punk.
ReplyDeleteIf Musical Maniacs wish to annoy normal people 24x7, they might try the stream of Shirley & Spinoza Radio: http://compound-eye.org/
The difference between punk mariachi and mariachi punk? Come on, it's as vast a gulf as the People's Front of Judea and the Judean Peoples' Front!
ReplyDeleteI know of Shirley & Spinoza Radio from way back (we're even both featured on the same album, "Calling All Fiends"), and somehow they slipt off my radar. I should put 'em up on my links section.
