Juanito Castillo - Juanito's Lab
Born prematurely, Juanito’s retinas were burned in the incubator but, in spite of this, his parents sensed Juanito’s artistic gift from a very early age, nurturing his multi-instrumental ability until Juanito got old enough to make his own creative decisions. Now a young man, Juanito is trapped between what he wants to be (original) and what society expects of him (to remain traditional to Conjunto music).
With the 2010 death of Juanito’s mentor and dear friend, accordion legend Esteban Jordan, some expected Juanito (who played drums for Jordan for two years) to carry on Jordan’s legacy. But Juanito also wants to record a CD of his own music.
While recording an album with Max Baca (Los Texmaniacs), Juanito kept growing and developing his own style at “the lab,” Juanito’s studio at a guesthouse behind his parents’ home, and the place from which he plans his “escape.” In typical Juanito style, he is satisfied but not thrilled with the resulting collaboration with Baca, and is determined to record another one, this one on his own. Before that happens, he goes to Los Angeles to meet and jam with Argentine producer and composer Gustavo Santaolalla (multi-Grammy, Golden Globe and two-time Academy Award winner) and other LA-based musicians. Upon returning to San Antonio, he embraces fatherhood and promises to deliver the album of his dreams: “Do you want Juanito’s Lab? I’ll give you Juanito’s Lab.”
“Juanito Castillo is a blind musical virtuoso who accepts no limitations on his creative impulses. Juanito’s Lab captures Castillo as he struggles to meet the burdens as well as the opportunities that come with his own musical restlessness. It’s a rare cinematic portrait of the artist as a young musician, learning to harness his talent and cope with the high expectations of those around him.” (Gilbert García, San Antonio Express-News)

I can hear influences of James Burton, Les Paul, John Lee Hooker, Wes Montgomery and George Benson in Steve Jordan’s playing! Jazz, blues, chicken pickin’, rock n roll! Wow!! Rest in peace Steve Jordan.
Desde el otro lado del Atlántico. Maravilloso. Un genio.
Una chingonada
Back in the early 1970s, while in Fort Hood, now Fort Cabazo's, we used to drive to Temple dance, get drunk, smoke a little weed, and listen to Little Joe in person. Those were great times...
Quvo
Them boys were the shit back then I still don’t see how Bobby Naranjo was able to carry that big ass accordion
I was there at concert in Copus Christi TX on A Sunday with family and friends.
What are the names of the band members from this era?
Cha Cha Jimenez Juan Solis Joe Solis Bobby Naranjo Ernie Ruiz
@ thank you. Had the pleasure of meeting Ernie way back in the mid 80’s. Very nice dude and top notch drummer. I think at that point, Bobby had left the band.
@@ARod-br2ui That's awesome Man! Yeah he was definitely a top notch musician; depending on when you saw them it may have been Jesse Zamora on chromatic or Frankie Caballero on regular diatonic box
Possibly my favorite LJYLF song!
Wow when was this and where??
Super accordion player . In a league of his own. Very original with much style and played any instrument placed in front of him. Amazing musician and he was just to much for the average person . May he rest in peace .

Where was this at?
@@richardmaceyra1546 according to Mr Johnny Hernandez, this was in Olivia TX, late 70s.
@@rcortez911I appreciate you loading up these gems carnal I was talking to Juan Solis and Bobby Naranjo and they said that it was in 1976/77 they were under the Guerra Rec's when they Recorded Irresistible when this all took place!
@@gilcasarez9950 Thank you. Glad to hear that Bobby Naranjo is still around my friends and I were great fans of his group and followed him wherever he played in Houston especially the Island Club in Denver Harbor.
Guessing in his prime years ago. But I don't know c where? 😕 ❤it ❤️
Chicano Woodstock, awesome!
That is exactly what I thought...😊
WOW !!!! WOW !!!!!! WOW !!!!! Just saw this video , how cool this is !!! Keep these old videos coming !!!
Maybe it's gonna take a miracle I believe in them my whole existence lapsing the testimony. I have that's all I have😊
I got saved to this music
Thanks for this demo! My understanding is that this accordion was jazz tuned in the reeds, had lower button height, and a different button layout for the chromatics. Can you explain the button layout? I haven't been able to find info that.
The reeds are all tuned 440. Buttons 2,3 and 4 on all 3 rows have a high octave reed. The first button reeds on the first row (row furthest from the grill) is flipped.
@rcortez911 Thanks! To be sure I understand, the reeds are 440 unison? 2,3,4 are MH instead of MM, and by flipped, you mean the push/pull notes on that first button is opposite from the factory setup? Cool
@@j.e.wgreve1535 yes 440 unison, 2,3 and 4 MH and pull push reversed on the first button, first row.
Y Me da Mucha Tristeza No Ver Ningun Comentario, QUE LASTIMA QUE TODA LA HUMANIDAD ESTA MUY ALEJADA DE DIOS DIOS NUESTRO PADRE TENGA MISERICORDIA DE NOSOTROS 🙏🙏🙏
Que Hermosa Melodia Dios Bendiga Paulino Bernal
Here it is!!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Juanitoooo!!!!
