Corrido Del Mono

Mariachi Los Gavilanes de Oakland
Corrido Del Mono In the musical genre corrido, a popular narrative tale and poetry form a ballad. The songs are frequently about socially relevant topics such as oppression and immigration, natural disasters, and the lives of notorious individuals. In 1990, Mariachi Los Gavilanes de Oakland (The Hawks of Oakland) recorded a collection of songs that reflected the band’s musical roots. The recording’s highlights are two corridos—one about an event that took place in Palo Alto, California (“Tragedia En Palo Alto"), and the other about the notorious Mexican bandit, Heraclio Bernal (“Tragedia de Heraclio Bernal”). The liner notes provide English translations of the corridos.
