Mexico has Ramon Ayala and Texas has Flaco Jimenez, both kings of the accordion.

The story about his dad founding out was about playing the accordion was beautiful the way his face looked when he talked about his dad can't explain the feeling it was just beautiful touched my heart

[@adamcolbertmusic]

That story brought a few tears to my eyes

Talks slow

The most beautiful sound to me. I don't understand too much Spanish, but the music rocks me away. I can understand where it is coming from. Love, humility, & hard work.
