Narciso Martinez. My uncle. He was the pioneer of the accordion, but sometimes, other better-known accordionist got the credit. Used to visit him in LA Paloma. His brother, Raul Martinez "El Ruco," was also a great accordion player. He was family to Abel Martinez, El Dueto Estrella de Miguel Aleman, and was also related to Los Mananeros de Nuevo Leon de Emilio y Pepe Martinez de Los Ramones Nuevo Leon. He left us with the ability to follow in his footsteps for many years. My mother was his sister.
