Review

Accordion master Flaco Jimenez returns in 2000 with an engaging blend of traditional-style conjunto, Tornado-style Tex-Mex, and more straight-ahead rock- and folk-tinged country. Cuts like the delightfully bubbly "Alright, Alright" (with pals Dwight Yoakam and Buck Owens) and the swamp-pop "You Got Me Wonderin'"--two of four songs produced by Yoakam collaborator Pete Anderson--call to mind Flaco's former compadre Doug Sahm. Other highlights include the Anderson-produced "I Found Out," a spunky shuffle featuring Bekka Bramlett; an irresistible cover of "Love Me Do" with Owens; and the three more-traditional songs (two sung in Spanish) that close the album. Though there's a bit of filler tossed in, Jimenez delivers a catchy project that will only continue to bring his unique Tex-Mex roots to a wider audience. --Marc Greilsamer
