RIP.  Saw that dude with Pete Rowan.  He manhandled that accordion something fierce.

Did I see/hear him with Ry Cooder at Laguna Suca (GD)? Maybe, maybe not. I know I loved his playing on a Ry Cooder album; it made me much more open to the idea of accordion.

Huge figure in Tejano / Tex Mex and Americana. A real legend. I loved the Texas Tornadoes.

I think now Augie might be the only one left. 

RIP Flaco

He was an icon of Norteno music.  I was lucky to see him one 4th of July in D.C.
