At an age when most performers of their stature are either fading fast or priming for the oldies circuit, Doug Sahm, Freddie Fender, Flaco Jimenez, and Auggie Meyers regrouped and made some of the rawest, swingingest, and most memorable music of their careers. Each member puts a slightly different spin on the Tex-Mex sound and the results blaze back and forth across the boundaries of spicy rock & roll ("Adios Mexico"), Tejano ("Who Were You Thinking Of"), and honky-tonk weepers ("A Man Can Cry"). You don't have to be familiar with Mexican music or the Spanish language to love this album: Its soul knows no borders and rocks right over any resistance. --Roy Francis Kasten
