I figured one genre of music I'd probably never really get into was mariachi. I mean, they're great in concept and kitsch value, but would I really queue something up on the ipod while driving to work? Especially a modern mariachi band? Well Nati Cano proved me wrong. His Mariachi Los Camperos are so great. Check out the vocals by Luis Damian on this track, I can't help but sing along at the top of my white lungs. I believe it's a traditional bolero, entitled La Malagueña (The Woman From Málaga), maybe someone who speaks Mexican (jk) can tell me what it's all about. Just listened to it again, oh my god I love this guy.
Hey, I'll be DJing this Saturday with Shea Van Horn of Mixtape @ Jimmy Vs, it's free and we're playing disco all night long, so stop by:

First comment. No one beats that Malaquena.
same song, different version from what's in Kill Bill Vol. 1, Cheezey? oh yea. But I knew I'd heard those lyrics from somewhere, even if the kill bill version is a little more americanized/modernized or whatever you want to call it.
Disco is not even kitschy, Cale. It even sucks, in a way.
@Michael
Nice, Roy and Luis should team up.
@Bob
Good ear, it's time to put the kill bill soundtrack back on the ipod.
@Ernest
My love for disco is not based on kitsch factor at all, my love is pure and deep and real and forever, how dare you suggest otherwise.
Oh. I suppose it's all right then. It seemed a little queer at first but now I'm convinced otherwise.
