Viva Seguin: Tejano Conjunto Pioneer's Original Hits 1947-1951

Along the Texas-Mexico border, popular Mexican American dance music is known as conjunto or musica norteño, depending which side of the Rio Grande/Rio Bravo river you live on. One of the early performers of this music form was accordionist Santiago Jiménez Sr. (1913–1984), an innovator in playing conjunto music on the two-button accordion. This collection features Don Santiago’s trio between 1947 and 1951. Of note, Don Santiago is the father of Santiago Jr. and Leopoldo “Flaco” Jiménez, both acclaimed accordion players.
