Ay mi Temo, mira lo que miro ¿Sera la marea que te jala a tu amor? La luna juega trucos en el agua O sera la bella llamando a este pescador Ay Temo Este viento te sopla las velas Se te suben los humos Que no hay ninguno Que pueda quitar tu valor Ay Temo Este viento tiene calor Pero escucha lo que te dice Ya no estan triste Ni causa dolor Oye Temo, tal vez sea la noche Que bonito perfume que llena en este aire la media luna me recuerda a tu corazon hasta que los dos se toquen en el baile Ay Temo Este viento te sopla las velas Se te suben los humos Que no hay ninguno Que pueda quitar tu valor Ay Temo Este viento tiene calor Pero escucha lo que te dice Ya no estan triste Ni causa dolor Music T.

There must be some way, there must be some way for me to tell you how I feel I could have shown you, I should have shown you but I got lost and just couldn’t deal So come on, Carolina just come right on come see about me, see about me There must be some time, there’s got to be a right time for me to tell you how I feel If I had told you, I always was true there’d be no reason for you to heal So come on, Carolina just come right on come see about me, see about me There must be some place, there’s got to be some place in this big old world, with all there is to see Where I wouldn’t have to, think like I always do what’s a woman like you, want with a man like me?

La lechuza vendió su alma, para olvidarse de la calma El ruido del rasguño, se oye en mi ventana En la noche vestido negro, volaba de su nido Esperando su llegada, que me da un scalo frio Mira La Lechuza que me arde el corazon Una seductora que me entierra el talón Mira La Lechuza no tiene ni razon Que me pasa mi Que me pasa mi La Lechuza en la fiesta, con ojos alrededor Ella hipnotizandó con una danza de amor Desde la primera vez, quise estar en su mundo Ahora soy, el tonto pobre, adentro tan profundo Mira La Lechuza que me arde el corazon Una seductora que me entierra el talón Mira La Lechuza no tiene ni razon Que me pasa mi Que me pasa mi © 2011 Music T.

We got married on the first of June we were doin fine, for a while we were right in tune It was right around August when it all went south I wound up waking to a woman with a vicious mouth Oh Claudine.. How’d you go and get so mean? you was such pretty sweet thing on our wedding day You were sexy and saucy now you’re you’re just plain bossy I’m tired of hearing you cry and cuss bitch and fuss Whatever happened to my sweet Claudine?

Now I won’t apologize for what I’m thinkin’ or the way I start to talk when I’ve been drinkin’ but we’ve done all that we can so I know you’ll understand why I’m pullin’ up stakes and crossin’ the Rio Grande It was 16 years ago this last November and there’s lots of good times there we can remember but the luck we had when we began has slipped right through our hands that’s why I’m pullin’ up stakes and crossin’ the Rio Grande It’s raining in this valley that’s reason enough to go all the way to the Yucatan on the Gulf of Mexico I know it’s not what we had planned but I’ve stood all I can stand that’s why I’m pullin’ up stakes and crossin’ the Rio Grande Mis lagrimas comienzan cuando te canto pero mi sangre se llena de vida en mi país No sé dónde nos llevará pero mi carino quiero ir con ti Now all these heart worn tears are soft and tender like when the last teardrop falls from Freddy’s fender and when it does finally land I’ll take you by the hand we’ll be pullin’ up stakes and crossin’ the Rio Grande So let’s go while we can back to where it all began yeah, we’ll be pullin’ up stakes and crossin’ the Rio Grande T.

I’m glad you came all by yourself you walked through a wall of flame never blamed anyone else Glow of town on the horizon, it’s coming into view Bloody knees, you’ve been praying for the so called “chosen few” Now stand in front of your accusers Two by, two by two You’re not afraid, you’ve seen it all before they’ve all said your name whispered soft behind closed doors Big yellow moon sinking low by the riverside Gentlemen walking slow but you know how to slide They’re talking, laughing and spilling lies Two by, two by two From where you came there are no pearls before swine Yeah they’ve memorized death and pain in a world that can spin out of time But here your beautifulness goes unrecognized in a thousand different ways and countless ones go on sleeping not knowing the price you’ve paid There’s a hundred million souls wandering Two by, two by two by two © 2011 T.

Me llaman Esperanza Estoy llevando comida a la tumba de mi abuelita Caminando con mi prima we’re running and laughing The moon’s hanging low over Misión San Fernando The voices of our loved ones are whispering cariños Like music floating through the arms of los robles The warmth that I’m feeling is from my heart beating Las estrellas align y las almas have something for me Estoy muy cansado Y este país no a sido fácil para mi Caminando con mis suenos, like the moon I’m alone Though no one ever says it, mi nombre es “Che” Cienfuegos Y gracias mi ángel, no quiero molestar “De nada, my family always welcomes a stranger” The warmth that I am feeling is from my heart beating Las estrellas align y las almas have something for me Ahora las sombras bailan a la luz de las velas La noche esta encantada Y no tenga miedo, he is as mean as he looks But I know in my heart, my Papi he will like you Mama says, “Mijita con quien estas hablando? There is no one there just the graves, the wind and trees” My eyes are drawn to a worn head stone Jose “Che” Cienfuegos rests here far from home The warmth that I am feeling is from my heart beating two worlds lost in time, and a love that will never be T.

La Mexicana (Chale) 04:23

It was Texas in July rolling on I-35 Northbound around Lorena hot and happy to be alive Heading towards Dallas where it was only a hundred and three The ghetto bus was rolling hard and it was time to eat Plugged into the satellite trying to get a little help from big brother We weren’t exactly lost but it was getting hard to tell Chale, you can go to hell In these parts soul food’s easy as taking a bite We pulled into a place that looked just right Food was smelling good when she walked out the kitchen door A vision of Latina loveliness like I’d never seen before Just a natural woman, blessed with a beauty so sublime Thoughts felt like sins but we were under her spell And for that Chale, you can go to hell We sat at her table made us all feel like “El Rey” Every move she made, had that certain sexy sway A man can look like a troll, be old and slow as he please But it won’t stop him from thinking he’s got a shot at the major leagues Yeah it’s stupid and sometimes it’s really not all that much fun But some caveman imprint makes more than our egos swell And for that Chale, you can go to hell We were about to pay the bill, it’d be the first time I’d see A tattoo on our angel as she reached right in front of me Like cholo tagged graffiti right across her upper left arm It was only one word “Chale” right then we were warned Oh man, come on that’s right where her inoculation should be So did we learn a single thing or just have this story to tell Chale, you can go to hell © 2012 T.

I thought I saw you on Olvera Street walking on that old brick and stone With a suitcase tripping up your feet made you look like you might be alone Out of New Orleans the Sunset Ltd. I reckon must’ve brought you here For a Union Station rendezvous again after so many years Even in a city full of angels beauty like yours cannot hide You stopped at the old plaza church but you did not go inside You made the sign of the cross and walked away like a vision of Saint Clare Still my eyes refused realize that maybe you just weren’t there And I don’t believe in miracles but I’m sure it was you again So I followed you through that old marketplace trying catch up to way back when I thought I saw you on Olvera Street talking to a Mexican boy He looked up and smiled, you touched his cheek and gave him a bright wooden toy And it brought me back to an innocence we thought we’d love without end Said our goodbyes at Union Station swore we’d see each other again For a Union Station rendezvous again, after so many years © 2012 T.

I know I let you down You were only trying to help, I was flat on the ground And I know I made you cry But there is no resurrection before you die Just so you will know It only will get harder the longer you go It’ll get harder It’ll get harder in each moment It’ll get harder with each tear It’ll get harder It’ll get harder my love It’ll get harder my dear I hoped you’d never change your mind But one can only take so much One can only be so blind I know just where we’ve been But I ain’t looking for redemption ‘Cause I’d just find a new sin Just so you will know It only will get harder the longer we go It’ll get harder It’ll get harder in each moment It’ll get harder by the year It’ll get harder It’ll get harder my love It’ll get harder my dear © 2011 T.

about

“Tremoloco” is the brainchild of singer and songwriter Tony Zamora from Los Angeles. It is an Mexican-Americana roots collective with new, original Country rock songs, Tex-Mex songs and ballads recorded in both English and Spanish. In September 2008, much praise was written on these pages about this band and “Tremoloco” became highly recommended to fans of the “Texas Tornados” and other Tex-Mex performers.

The reason for this was the release of their debut album “Dulcinea” where many famous artists had collaborated which included accordionist Joel Guzman, multi-instrumentalist Greg Leisz, pedal steel guitarist Cindy Cashdollar and ‘Los Lobos’ singer David Hidalgo. The two drummers Cougar Estrada (also producer of the CD) and David Raven drummed merrily along.

Both are again present on “Salsipuedes” the new album from Tremoloco this one for a change was produced by David Raven. The contribution of Cougar Estrada this time is playing drums and piano. Other famous names who participated on this album are bajo sexto legend Max Baca ( “Texas Tornados” and “Los Texmaniacs’), accordionist Josh Baca, pedal steel guitarist Rick Shea, violinist Mike Sandoval and The Blasters’ singer Dave Alvin who plays electric guitar on two songs.

“Salsipuedes” contains 16 new songs in the familiar Tremoloco style with influences from Americana and Mexicana and once again alternating between English and Spanish songs. Country rockers like the first single “Claudine” and “La Mexicana” are expertly blended with the blues rocker “The Riverside” (with Dave Alvin) or with very danceable songs like the opening track “Temo” or the rumba of Union Station (Olvera Street).

There are also some beautiful country ballads with “Western Sky”, “Carolina Yes”, “Crossing the Rio Grande” and the closing song “Harder”. Other very enjoyable moments are given to us through the harmonica infused instrumental “Salinas to San Antonio ” and the wonderful bilingual sung waltz “Viejo”.

Karina Nistal is a young female singing talent in LA (originally from Houston) and she sings impressively in duet with Tony Zamora on the beautiful cajun accordion song “Misión San Fernando”. The song “La Lechuza” begins with a Spanish version of the children’s song that we know as “Brother John” and then in pure Tex-Mex style becomes a Calexico-like tune including the indispensable mariachi trumpets and violins. Something similar happens a little later with the violin and jarana dominated traditional song “La Gata”.

The only thing that is a bit of a pity about this CD “Salsipuedes” from Tremoloco is that it took years for new work from this wonderful group to get on the market. But if we assume that quality prevails over quantity, then everything is a bit more bearable and we are even willing to wait (though that’s really not necessary).
