Mariachi
Mariachi music (I know very little about it, actually) strikes me as being Mexican country western in 3/4 time. I know that "La Paloma" and "Cielito Lindo" have been on the Mariachi Top 10 for more than 75 years.
This weekend brought a huge Mariachi Convension to town. The Mariachi musicians occupied two stages at Ried Park. The thing that I found most striking was that the quality of music and musicianship was orders of magnitude better than either the blues concert or NAM Jam, held in the same venue.
