5.0 out of 5 stars Classic Mexican dances by "El Mejor Mariachi del Mundo", May 12, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Bailes Regional De Mexico (Audio CD)

This classic late 1960's album by the most important Mariachi ensemble features their remarkable performances of the famous "Jarabe Tapatio" (hat dance) and a furious arrangement of the popular "La Bamba" that shows great respect for the original *Son Jarrocho* from Vera Cruz. This CD will make you want to stomp out a *zapateado.* Indespensible for all Mariachi fans.

I really miss the genre recordings of mariachis. I miss the days when they would put out a simple recoding of just "sones," "Danzones," "Pasodobles," etc. This is from "golden age" of Mariachi Vargas. I always liked "La Bamba" on this album and the rest of the songs are exciting also. They go from region to region. They are simple songs, but played extremely well.

The music is okay but the recording studio was poor. The current generation of vargas musicians is much better prepared from a technical & world exposure perspective.
