About Banda El Recodo
La Banda el Recodo is not only one of Mexico's most successful banda de musica sinaloense, gradually becoming the group's director. Shortly after moving to Mazatlan, Sinoloa, he accepted an invitation to sign with RCA Victor. Although he recorded his first two tunes, "Mi Adoracion" and "El Callejero," with a quintet, he soon formed La Banda el Recodo with its classic lineup of two clarinets, two trumpets, two trombones, bass drum, and snare drum.nLizárraga continued to lead La Banda el Recodo until his death from cancer in 1995. The group continues to tour, however, led by his clarinetist sons German and Alfonso. The current band also features clarinet player Alberto Montoya, vocalists Carlos Sarabia and Luis Antonio Lopez, harmony singers Víctor Manuel, Sarabia Garcia, and Aldo Sarabia Garcia, trumpet players Mario Alvarado Villaseñor and Enrique Valdez Rojas, bass drummer Jose Martinez Ochoa, snare drummer Jose Martinez Jimenez, trombone players Oscar Alvarez Otonez, Conrado Zatarain Fajardo, and Gerardo Urias Gutierrez, and tuba player Carlos Soto Beltran. Five years after the death of Lizárraga, La Banda el Recodo won a Grammy for Best Banda Performance for "Lo Mejor de Mi Vida" at the first annual Latin Grammy Awards. Under the new leadership of Lizárraga's sons, Alfonso and Joel, La Banda el Recodo forged ahead, prolifically releasing albums in the new millennium, including 2006's Mas Fuerte Que Nunca, which mixed banda with other musical influences, including salsa and cumbia. ~ Craig Harris, All Music Guide
