Rigo Tovar

The quality bites, but I'm more interested in the song, and the way he immortilizes Matamoros, perhaps the last place I expected. I'm happy to know it's not all about New York - New York.



A work in progress inspired by this video. Hoping to do the same with others, possibly.


Querida Valle
after Rigo Tovar

en este lado de la frontera
brincamos para la cumbia,
banda, internacional, techno

en la pulga de San Juan
con las señoras maduras
vigilando las jóvenes

y no nos vamos
hasta que ahogamos
las penas

querida amor
siempre regresare
te bailare un guapango
querida valle
