Album Notes
With almost three decades of recording under their belts, Conjunto Primavera can truthfully claim to have seen both sides of the pop world--until the mid-1990s, the prolific Norteno band enjoyed limited success. However, after their first bona fide hit, 1993's ME NORTIE, they could do no wrong.
The Chihuahua, Mexico sextet's 2005 release, HOY COMO AYER, further cements their hard-won position as giants of Norteno, with a set of songs that combines deep emotion, solid tradition, and innovative, masterly musical touches. The percussive flourishes that lace the accordion-flavored "Mono Negro" subtly accent Tony Melendez's impassioned vocals, while the jaunty "Aun Sigues Siendo Mia" is Norteno two-step at its finest. The waltz-time "El Rey Pobre" is a stylish example of impassioned ranchera singing that, like all of this classy collection's material, tugs at the heartstrings, while avoiding excess sentimentality. Showing versatility finely honed over the years, the smoothly realized cumbia of "Dime Que No Es Cierto" displays a gently insistent dance beat that points to many more years of chart success for this spirited outfit.
