Pachuco Boogie

Pachuco is variously defined as a 1930s and 40s era subculture of Chicanos and Mexican-Americans, associated with zoot suits, street gangs, nightlife, and flamboyant public behavior. Out of this subculture emerged a distinctive genre of Mexican music; a melding of swing, rhythm and blues, and jump blues. This collection features examples of pachuco music by Don Tosti and other Southern California and south Texas Mexican-American bands in the late 1940s. Liner notes include a brief history of the music, biographies of artists, and Spanish and English lyrics.
