Los Tigres del Norte need no real introduction, but this one\'s for the gabachos: imagine the Beatles combined with the Rolling Stones, mix in some Clash and Bill Monroe, and you still won\'t come close to describing the influence, innovative technique, and all-around talent these masters of the conjunto norteño genre (the Mexican music with accordions, not the one with tubas) have had on Mexican regional music for over 40 years. Their latest album, MTV Unplugged: Los Tigres del Norte & Friends, has the group performing some of their masterpieces and even features a duet with Rage Against the Machine frontman Zack de la Rocha. Do yourself a favor and buy this album as a primerthen work backwards through a catalogue that would make Bob Dylan seem as prolific as Blind Faith.
