Review of Mariachi Corner

I never thought about Mariachi as a part of the "music business". The word business seemed the last word I would use to describe this style of music. I have lived in Arizona most of my life and have spent a significant amount of time in Mexico, yet until this piece, I had not considered how Mariachi musicians made their living or booked performances. Hal's interview was a truly informative piece that opened my eyes to a life I have always known existed, but never really contemplated.
