Despite what the magnificent blues-rock of "I Was Born in Chicago" might lead you to believe, Javier Bátiz was, in fact, born in Tijuana, Mexico. Though not exactly known as the birthplace of the blues, Tijuana received plenty of blues and rock sounds from the likes of T-Bone Walker, Chuck Berry, B.B. King, and others because of its proximity to the U.S. A phenomenal guitar player, Javier masterfully mixes these influences into a potent blues-rock brew on this album, Javier Bátiz y Su Onda, from 1973. How fortunate we are to be able to enjoy these fantastic electrified blues once again! Other tracks include "You Don't Have to Go," "Bright Lights Big City," "I Was Born in Chicago," "I'm in Love Again," "Charlena," "Baby What's Wrong," and more.
