“#TexasTuesday My favorite Lydia Mendoza song is "Amor Sin Esperanza" if anything just because it was the first song I heard of hers. Alas, its rights are heavily guarded, but this one is nice too. I took a class on the music of Texas, and she always stood out to me. I think there is just something of a badass in her. She performed, playing guitar for herself, at a time and place when most women did not do so. I would have loved to see her play live before she died. http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=127033025≻=fb&cc;=fp - The Lark of the Border”
