No single artist did more to popularize conjunto and Tejano music than Flaco Jimenéz, the master accordion player who received an unprecedented level of critical acclaim. Over the course of a career that spanned six decades, Jimenéz took the accordion-fueled Tex-Mex sound to a worldwide audience. Without compromising his musical vision, Jimenéz introduced the traditional conjunto sound to mainstream pop and country listeners thanks to his collaborations with the Texas Tornadoes, Dwight Yoakam, the Mavericks, and Emmylou Harris. Tune in to KBOO Saturday morning 6:00 - 9:00 am as we pay tribute to the late great Flaco Jimenéz.
