el Garee le Bee~:

Anything mexican I love. But only heard of this probably 30years ago. It was mostly an AM phenom to bypass US regulations and broadcast in english across the texas border. Lots of evangelicals and all that. As said, it's a good story. There are books about it.

I'm not an expert but I think the idea was if the station was just on the other side of the Mexican border they could boost the signal beyond US limits for greater coverage.

Van can iron his jock strap for all I care. But listen again to that Lemon Twigs item and you may change your mind. He has a singular, orchestral sound. It's this musician's impression. Draw from it what you want.
