Tamale Christmas

With Jonny Hernandez - KUNM Studio

Sat. 12/22 2p: Celebrate a Tamale Christmas, Tejano style! Join Adam Aguirre with his special guest, the legendary and definitive co-founder/documentarian/authority/guardian of "Tejano" music, Johnny Hernandez, as we look at and listen to the classic and varied, 50-year career of a timeless, ageless veterano of the Tejano music scene.
Johnny brings his new CD, "Gracias", to the studio for a sample of his current sound, and invites you to recall the fantastic music that has defined the Tejano sound (some of it-- not "Tejano" at all). Joe King Carrasco helps with the tamale part on this special edition. No, we couldn't get no stinkin' stones, but we'll rock and roll texas-style! 

Adam is the Host of Route 66 and a member of the KUNM Raices Collective.
