Chicken y Sus Comandos - Mi Mexico Querido (2021)

The album is a comprehensive anthology of the works of Chicken y Sus Comandos, whose recordings serve as a cornerstone of mid-20th-century Mexican cumbia and tropical music. This 2021 release by Craft Recordings is a digital remaster of the group's classic legacy, originally issued on the legendary Vaya Records (a subsidiary of Fania).

Conceptually, the album is dedicated to the geographical and cultural diversity of Mexico. Musically, the ensemble masterfully blends traditional cumbia with Caribbean rhythms, featuring period-specific brass sections and accordion melodies. The significance of this edition lies in the preservation of archival recordings that were for many years available only on rare vinyl, now integrated into the modern digital landscape with enhanced sound quality.
