Quetzal
Album: Worksongs
Politically conscious poetic lyrics combined with Rock, soul, cumbia,
salsa and traditional Mexican music make Quetzal a truly unique
band. Worksongs is their third album of the Los Angeles sextet.
Martha Gonzale's vocals in this album is as outstanding as it was in
the previous two releases.

The works above are mere suggestions for listening. These are all judgment calls made by the
infamous webmaster and they do
not necessarily reflect the tastes of Raices de mi Tierra. They are all
great CDs, in my humble opinion, and they make for great listening. This is
but a short list. If you think we're missing something, write to the
