This is sad when conjuntos think there better than anybody else! Joe Borrego, Gilbert Gonzales, Alfred Garcia,Oscar Torres, are great accordion players who some have original polkas under there belt. Cute, Good looking doesn't matter!! It's how he/she plays that matters. Feeling, Heart and Soul is what Conjunto is all about, Foot stomping,beer drinking, dancing,and gritos is what Conjunto music is to me! And who ever is playing, great job doing what you do! Stop trying to find out Whos the best or number 1 and support all of them!! We still don't even have a radio station that plays puro conjunto music!!! Now this is something to talk about!!! Trying to find out how we can get a local conjunto station in h-town!!!

With out the old school accordion players there would not be what is now! It's great fans like charlie or johnny there is nothing wrong with that. But H-town has more than two accordion player it's just sad the don't get the props. they deserve! And thats the bottom line! And for all the new comers to conjunto music in H-town check out Gilbert, Joe, Oscar, or Alfred they are some very talented musicians!!
I agree there is alot of talented musicans from Houston, but Charlie and Johnny really stand out above the rest. I mean these guys are young and are already known more than the older guys. The older guys blazed the path for these talented young musicans, so props to them. Johnny and Charlie you guys are amazing and are the present and future of conjunto here in Houston.
