Herencia Musical: 20 Norte¤as Famosas (CD)

One of the most popular norteno acts of all time, Los Tigres Del Norte formed in the late 1960s and brought a grittier sense of subject matter to the popular genre of border music. While life's hardships were always lyrical fodder for norteno artists, Los Tigres took things a step farther and introduced vivid tales of crime, drug running, and violent betrayals along the border. Musically, the band plays a polished, highly modernized version of a very traditional style of accordion-driven norteno, helping them maintain their appeal through the decades and across generations.

This 2004 set of well-known tunes from the legendary Norteno combo Los Tigres del Norte is filled with the kind of songs that this band has built its reputation on for more than three decades. Some of these songs convey of a sense of longing, while others celebrate the working life of Mexican immigrants in the United States, and others are romantic ballads performed in the band's own inimitable style. The collection 20 NORTENAS FAMOSAS leads off with the jaunty "La Jaula de Oro," which boasts a sprightly beat, and quickly segues into the waltz time of "Pro Que Me Quite del Vicio." The regret-laden "Asomate a Mi Copa" is a down-tempo highlight, while "El Nino y la Boda" tells its tale to a familiar Norteno rhythm. Los Tigres del Norte's tradition of combining storytelling with irresistible dance music continues unabated with this dynamic album.
