J2112YYZ Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 I once saw a mariachi band open for Foo Fighters. They were called Mariachi El Bronx. Very odd to see that at a rock show but it was completely in line with the Foo Fighters sense of humor. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goose Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 My grandfather used to sing Cucurrucucú Paloma all the time. Hearing it brings tears to my eyes these days, and I always request it whenever I come across a mariachi band. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MGCvlnHaPyA 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone was respectful when the band was playing but you could tell that the fans all knew it wasn't supposed to be taken seriously. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueschica Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 (edited) Our neighbors play it a lot (recordings) during their cookouts. It's cheerful to hear as it drifts over on warm nights! :ebert: Edited September 8, 2019 by blueschica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RushFanForever Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 (edited) There's a chapter in Neil Peart's book 'Traveling Music: The Soundtrack to My Life and Times' (beginning around page 240) where he mentions being exposed to mariachi music. One of the mariachi acts Peart mentions is Mariachi Cobre. A couple songs mentioned that the group perform is 'Guadalajara' and 'Granada'. The songs can be heard on the group's 1992 album here. The second mariachi musical reference from Peart is the Frida (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), which can be heard . Also Peart references the song 'Paloma Negra' that's on both playlists. As well, the Gipsy Kings are mentioned too. Edited September 8, 2019 by RushFanForever 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goose Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 I’m partial to the Gipsy Kings: Spanish flamenco music is great. There's a band, Pata Negra, that put out a fantastic flamenco-blues fusion album 20 years back. "Blues de la Frontera" was the album. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
