Joe Nick Patoski, writing in Rolling Stone, called Flaco Jiménez “the Chuck Berry of the squeeze box.” Named a National Heritage Fellow in 2012, Flaco has been touring and recording since the 1950s, first with his father Santiago Jimenez and then with his own band. “Un Mojada Sin Licencia” (A Wetback Without a License) is a collection recorded between 1955 and 1967 for the Norteno/Sombrero label, in which Flaco plays polkas, boleros, , huapangos, and cumbias. The much loved “Mojado,” written by Santiago, is both an upbeat dance song and a treatment of a serious issue through humor. Liner notes include full lyrics in Spanish and English.
