One of Mexico's longest-running banda groups celebrates its 45th anniversary with fresh material showcasing both their traditional style and ability to innovate. "Si Pudiera" is an old-school bolero, with horns punctuating a romantic vocal, while "La Joya" leans toward contemporary pop with a punchy, R&B-flavored horn chart. The title track has a classic arrangement, with tuba taking the bassline. But its lyric—where leader Salvador Lizárraga proclaims himself the maestro and takes down all potential challengers—suggests he's heard a few hip-hop records.
