Description

Arhoolie CD-344.

Recorded in Alice, Texas by Armando Marroquin for the Ideal label, between 1954 and 1960.

“…Had you never before heard of Paulino Bernal, from the very first sixteen bar instrumental introduction you would immediately recognise that here, indeed, was an accordion player extraordinaire…  With his trills, diminished chords that would sound more at home in the Middle East, rapid fire chromatic triplets, incredible mastery of keyboard, and complete bellows control, Bernal wordlessly proclaims himself a musical genius.”  – Keith Chandler
