  • I thank Allah everyday he made me an American.

  • (continued from below) upcoming wedding. in galveston my generation grew up on the texas tornadoes (w/freddie, flaco, little joe, etc), waylon & willie, jimmy buffet, the commodores, & everything! it's a melting pot in southeast texas, ;) if somebody has it, i'd love for it to be posted. if the band wants to come back through san diego county this year... i'm gonna cook up some brisket to cater the wedding...hint...hint... then i wouldn't be the only texan there...lol

  • when i was a kid growing up on galveston island, i got my allowance and it wasn't much... but a coke was still 50 cents and some peanuts to go in it were only 25 cents... anyway, i would go into this record store downtown. they had new and used records and tapes, and there among the used 45's i found "what am i living for, if not for you" by little joe y la familia. i've heard many versions since then, but their's is the best to me. well i lost mine to hurricane alicia. i want to play it at my

  • Wow, these were the times.......

    

  • When I lived in Corpus Christi, Texas from 1959-1962 with the US Navy I became a fan of "Tejano Music" and of Little Joe, Sunny Ozuna, Agustin Ramirez, and Freddy Martinez. I attended many dances with them at the Corpus Christi colloseum. Being a New Mexican the music was very similar to our New Mexican music with Al Hurricane, etc. and that is why I became a fan of "Tejano"

  • I'm a proud CHICANO I grew up to music because that all my dad played

  • Mayra te amo y me vale madre que tengas marido!!!! si no te cumple, aqui estoy para complacerte, YO SOY TU VIEJO!!!!

  • Puro Tejano que saben? Love little Joe y tod la familia. Good day to be latino.

  • this music and beer ES TODO

  • My uncle Roland Galindo also a musician turn me on to these track on the 8-track remember those haaaaaaaaaaaaaa ha!

  • JUST GREAT! Although I am a native Nuevo Mejicano, I have liked Little Joe y su Familia since my inauguration to Tejano music in 1960 when I landed in Corpus Christi with the US Navy. I remember attending concerts at the Corpus Convention Ctr with Freddy Martinez, Agustine Ramirez, Sonny Ozuna and other Tejano musicians. Tejano music is not that much different from our New Mexican music and I would love to hear our Al Hurricane and your Little Joe perform. That would be just awesome!

  • gotta love little joe my brother taught me how to dance to this music . after that we were out on weekends at the star light club in houston tx miss those good ole days....

  • He was here in San Diego last month...I fell in love with my date at this concert!!!

  • CQn?

  • Having heard Little Joe as a young boy in the 70's, to this day the music they have put out is nothing less than impeccable. Thier music along with many other genre's ( rock, r&b, heavy metal, jazz, ) have influenced me in my approach as a musician and as a drummer percussionist.

  • When I was growing up in the Odessa area in the 1960s, we started seeing Little Joe show up at the Pan American Ballroom. I used to go to his dances to meet girls and to marvel at their outstanding musical talents. I played Trombone at Ector High School, which was the Chicano school in Odessa. I marveled at their brass and reed section. I never saw Little Joe on American Bandstand, but I knew they were just as good as any American rock n' roll band.

  • esta musica la escuche bastante con grupos laguneros haya por 1978 , y la verdad me agrada bastante el estilo chicano

  • This is another great classic by little Joe.....this group never goes out of style, their presentations kick butt, this Senior Citizen[Little Joe] still puts young singers to shame.....he is the Grand Maestro Show Man.....If he played all his hits in one concert, he would be there a whole week.....long may you live Little Joe, you are un tesoro carnal.....you make us proud to be Tejanos! Tejano and Proud!

  • puro old school music

  • you sure are wright they just don't play good music like that i grew up with that music and my dad playing there music in there band

  • tejano music is our culture. thats what keeps us together and happy and dancing. long live our tejano brothers and sisters and our music. long live laredo, san antonio , corpus christi and the valley of texas

  • tejano music is my music we are the tex mex nation like us or not we are here to stay ever since the sixties laredo texas is where i am from little joe is just one of our tejano leaders that we look up to we don't look up to no one else i'm a chicano product of the sixties thank you

  • For my grandma & grandpa!

  • not to create controversy but the term chicano is a outdated brown beret term used in the 70s in california for hispanics /latino /mexicano...etc those who are born and raised in Tejas are Tejanos and this music is a fusion of that if you were to go to california and propose this as chicano music or visa versa it wouldnt fly that being said que viva la musica Tejana

  • gracias adios es una prieta su vieja de el amigo era weda y ella dice que por eso le dicen little joe por que es little saludos de de Flagstaff

  • These Texanos had some serious talent!! The Tex-Mex bands had Outstanding horn-sections:]

  • during the 70s we as mexican american were all called Chicanos so the music was called chicano music..it wasnt until the 80s when they started to call the music Tejano, since most of the music was coming from texas.

    Long Live The Kings of the Brown Sound!!

  • Comment removed

  • From the early 60s in south and west Texas we called it Tejano music and we included other groups that played the accordion like Los Velas, Los Madrugadores, Los Riales de Tejas, Ruben Vela, Roberto Pulido etc. I did not hear the word Chicano until the 70s in the CC area

  • @blurbarhouston yeah thats right TEJAS y que man tejas representing puro tejano compadre

  • echele carnalito jajaaaaaaa

  • @blurbarhouston You got that right!!!!

  • @blurbarhouston You right back in the '70's we were all called Chicanos.

  • Chicano is the hyphen between Mexican-American. Tejano is a music genre made famous in Texas hence the name Tejano. Little Joe is a pioneer in this genre and he's still rocking Tejano style.

  • can someone tell me if this music is "Chicana" or "Tejana" ? no matter ,it kicks ass!!

  • tejano is what this music is called. chicano is a person that is born in texas but from mexican parents

  • Sorry to disappoint you but tejano/tejana is also a person born in Texas or Tejas. Chicano is a slag word where tejano/tejana is a proper noun. Dig it.

  • Hoy te vi en la mana con ropa de noche cansada y casada;vete de mi por que no quiero matarte. Vevrso del "Gallo", cantor Cubano.

  • OMG what`s that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?

  • i love tejano music was born in to it my dad played it all the time

  • love that old tejano music

  • Los Tres Amigos need to get back together in Houston...I would love to see that

  • If you've never seen Little Joe live, you have to go to appreciate how good his music really sounds. It is impossible not to get up and dance.

  • I grow up to this music. It reminds me of mom & dad. May they rest in peace. Now this is GOOD music.

  • OMG i love this music! grew up listening to this, thanks to my grandparents ....its the best :D thanks for posting

  • The first cross over tejano sound to Regional Mexican Top 20 Little Joe Y la famila y Freddie Martinez in 1973 a 1977 in California the great chicano sound, that mexicanos adepted to in that era.... ....
