Music Chronicles
This page contains twelve shows I produced and hosted for
my internet radio series "Chicano Music Chronicles, originally
broadcast in 2006 on crnlive.com. I spotlight one artist
per show and play my favorite recordings by that artist.
I also interview the artists about the recordings and their
careers. The only shows of the twelve below on which
I did not have a guest, are the show about my dad, Lalo
Guerrero, who had passed away before the inception of my show,
and the show on my own music.
