Jefe de Jefes

Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
The Tigres' masterpiece, this two-CD set is the finest single album in modern norteño music. The corrido (ballad) is the heart of norteño, and this is a sophisticated exploration of the themes that have made the Tigres masters of modern corrido. The title song ("Boss of Bosses" in English) sets the mood with its suggestion of a mafia capo controlling everything from the government to the press; and other pieces plumb the drug world on both sides of the border, with less shooting and more subtlety than previous narcocorrido (drug ballad) discs. Other songs explore the immigrant experience and life in rural Mexico. Unlike most Mexican records, the set includes a lyric book (Spanish only). --Elijah Wald

5 out of 5 stars A flower in a pot of dirt!.......2001-03-07

The banda scene is just too saturated and unoriginal these days,there is too much garbage in this genere,however,LOS TIGRES DEL NORTE are an exception!They are the voice for mexican immigrants!The lyrics are smart,and real!The music is fresh,while still being 100% mexican grupera!"mis dos patrias"is an awsome song about his 2 dear lands....also "el prisionero" is great!I 'd reccomend this and also the old tigres recordings!

5 out of 5 stars Authentic energy and melody.......2000-07-01

This is the real thing. You'll hear it blasting from second-story apartment windows in the Spanish-speaking neighborhoods of any major U.S. city. No hablo espanol, but I still enjoy the music. It has the perfect combination of rhythm and melody, just like the polka music I usually like to review. Some of these could be called waltzes, I guess, and they're the best too.

5 out of 5 stars Good CD.......2000-06-20

I bought this cd and its the best!He really talks about good issues while singing the best music yet!There is a good futer in this band.If you buy this cd you would also like Herencia De la familia by Tigeres Del Norte. Just remember your making a good buy!
