HINOJOSA, Tish Memorabilia Navidena (CD)

(Watermelon Records) 8 tracks

C. Dieckmann, Die Zeit: “Nothing less than one of the most beautiful Christmas albums in pop and folk history is delivered by the Queen of Border Music... Tish Hinojosa and her exquisitely cast acoustic band play with such honest joy, such deep and genuine feelings that you are actually overcome with emotion. This may be due to Tish's wonderful voice, but more to the simple, slightly Mexican-tinged Christmas songs, intoned with such innocence and lack of calculation that they make your soul glow. And that is far more than all the other seasonal albums put together have to offer.”
