A very Happy 84th Birthday to Flaco Jimenez. Leonardo Jiménez March 11, 1939 San Antonio, Texas. Founding member of Sir Douglas Quintet and the Texas Tornados. Winner of multiple Grammy's and other awards. A legend in Tejano music. Many, many more Flaco...
The Mavericks are one of the best LIVE bands our there. Period. Their personalities and energy are fantastic. If you ever hear of them coming to town, SEE THEM LIVE!!
I LOVED these guys back in the 90's and had a major crush on Raul. 😁 I could listen to The Mavericks all day and never get sick of hearing him sing. Look up his cover of "Crying" by Roy Orbison. Chills.
Bonsoir Raul Malo et The Mavericks.. Je vous ait découvert en 2018..depuis ce temps je vous écoute chanter à tous les jours et vous incarner là le bonheur ... Je vous adore et tous les musiciens qui vous accompagnent et vous avez une très belle famille .. Je suis du Canada.. Je demeure à Trois-Rivières une ville entre Montréal et Québec .. Merci pour votre talent et la variété de vos chansons..En passant je suis une fan de Elvis Presley tout comme vous.. Merci de partagé votre musique ..Je vous adore Ginette
This is phenomenal! And the best to entertain your fans around the world..legends on this stage..very good and they got the rhythem and beat going on..fabulous George Jones song..
This band are outstanding musicians, It's one of the best albums I've ever heard..hooked on it since it came out. This is REAL music.! I blow the harp. Take it away fellas!.🎼🙏❤️🎼
Al Anderson cowrote this song with Raul Malo. Anderson said that when wrote it he thought it was dumb at first and thought "What the hell is this?' Then I heard the record on the radio, and it was the best - that's my favorite record of all time." Anderson added he and Malo shared a strong song writing partnership: "I'm able to zone in on Raul when it comes to songs. I really enjoy writing with him."
That's the lineup I did watch here in Berlin at the "Loft"/Metropole Theater; with approximately 200 Berliner's and guests. (The guy on lead guitar is a German.)

Well deserved recognition
Someone once said this is THE BEST under-rated and appreciated bands ever----have to agree 100%. Raul's voice is simply amazing!!
The Mavericks are great, God bless Flaco. A true legend
I like this group especially with Flaco playing the Accordion he is great
Love Raul 😘 One of my all time favorite singers! What an entertaining band!🎶💃
So talented,love Flaco he sure can make that box sing,also love his fun side whenever it gets the better of him 😂☘
Yup, Flaco is grinning top-to-bottom. And who knew the accordion could squeal like that?
That voice and he always plays with Flaco when he can.
Flaco and the Mavericks at the top of their game
2023 FLACO STILL KILLING THE ACCORDION.
This song is so underrated
That's the "San Antonio,Texas" sound. And Flaco Jimenez and the Mavs are our boys.
Flaco is too, too awesome. Great song, great sound!!
Flaco Jiménez was born to be the worlds best accordion player echale Flaco
I once heard someone describe Flaco as the "Jimi Hendrix" of Tejano Conjunto accordian. That pretty much sums it up.
So that would make Ramon Ayala Clapton?
@@cesarmontes6511 no, Dr. DRE
I heard Steve Jordan referred to the Hendrix if the accordion.
Bullshit!!!!!!!That wld be Esteban Jordan......Nobody has ever reached his level of jammn of the squeeze box
@@cesarmontes6511 Ayala sux
This is real country sound not like today's stuff
Flaco is the Chuck Berry of Accordion. This video says "I'm GOAT". His originality, touch and flair is unparalled.
U go Flaco, u r the man!!!👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I can leave this on repeat while I work in the shop all day long 🥰
They could sing the saddest song in the world& you still couldn't sit still you will have no choice but to dance
these guys are the best. Raul Malo and the mavericks are so great and playing with Flaco is the best your gonna get.
Oh Hell Yes! The best version ever.
FLACO ROXX!!!
Do you happen to like the song LITTLE BIT IS BETTER THAN NADA by the Texas Tornados? Just asking :)

The Mavericks are one of the best LIVE bands our there. Period. Their personalities and energy are fantastic. If you ever hear of them coming to town, SEE THEM LIVE!!

Would love to see the actual video from MTV this song broke out on.. it's nowhere..that's really sad !!
Definitely! My husband & I saw them in November 2022 at the Ryman & they were awesome!!!!
Raul and Flaco, great duo. Love the acordion.
I LOVED these guys back in the 90's and had a major crush on Raul. 😁 I could listen to The Mavericks all day and never get sick of hearing him sing. Look up his cover of "Crying" by Roy Orbison. Chills.

El Flaco de San Anto eat your heart out Maga mofos
"... bring me down, Flaco... "
Raul Malo is soooo cute.
We love you Flaco!
Jay's reaction was insulting and dismissive. The Mavericks are INCREDIBLE.
That's his response for everyone. He's on a live broadcast with time constraints.
That's just who Jay is 😅 great guy.
This is phenomenal! And the best to entertain your fans around the world..legends on this stage..very good and they got the rhythem and beat going on..fabulous George Jones song..
Awesome guys, just plain awesome. Love U Flaco...

to me, it's the song with the most depressing title, and the most upbeat tune
Love these guys👍👍👍💕💕💕💕💕💕 for years…..

Thanks for posting. I LOVED the Mavericks, was so sad when they split up. They had a very unique sound, not like every other country band.
uncadiane You are most welcome! Thanks for the note of appreciation, too :)
Did they get back together? They are touring now.
@@eddie195777 Yes they did! Better than ever.
Ach war Raul da noch jung. Und der Song war auch schon da und immer noch top. Super super super ❤❤❤😂
The greatest
Absolutely love these guys. Vive Mejico

That's the lineup I did watch here in Berlin at the "Loft"/Metropole Theater; with approximately 200 Berliner's and guests. (The guy on lead guitar is a German.)
Such a lively group 👌
Flaco & Malo !!
flaco a g Ramon the real accordion hero...
Ramon Ayala ain't got nothing on Flaco
“Pretend” is one of my fav tunes of theirs.I’ve covered AYEDIBMD,& TGMHeart for Years!
They will get people on the dance floor and Pattin their feet.
Take it away flacko great
Lol, Flaco Jimendez. I can only wonder what Flaco thought about that introduction.
He said. "Jay Leno, all you ever do is bring me down". :)
He Mendez. Dios mio!
He's not a hater, he's a player
Pinche gringo,at least it wasn't a dumbass orange clown introducing him then Flaco might have had some words for him 🤣
The Mavericks are the best live band out there nobody better
wow! awesome job👍👍guys
For all you guys that think this is Mexican influenced music, check where they are from. Miami, Florida. They are Cuban in their music.
But the main man in this video was El Flaco 👍 puro Tejano
Best party band ever try to catch when ever I can.
They ARE THE BEST!!! 👍👍😎
Viva flaco
A TELE and FLACO??? HACEN MUY FELIZ!!!
Great a Song, thank's for Posting (y).
