The first thing Javier pulled out was a Comic Book written by Carlos Santana… The folder was filled with old newspaper clippings, photos, show fliers and other memorabilia from his nearly seven decades as a rock star. So I've got to show you, this is very important to me…. Javier Batiz House Clip 28 After Music Javier Takes Us To Show Us Clippings and Photos Then sat us down and pulled out a manila folder…
my producer Kinsee Morlan and I got to hear Javier play a few songs in his practice studio outside his house….which is just six blocks south of the U.S.-Mexico border in downtown Tijuana.Īfter he played us a few songs, he invited us into his living room… His hair tops off his skinny jeans, pointy leather rocker boots and cool t-shirts and big silver necklaces around his neck.īasically, he looks like a famous rock star.Ī few weeks back. Javier’s hair, though, is way more epic and iconic than mine.he rocks a glorious frizzy afro.
He kept calling me Frank, by the way, because of my curly black hair that he says makes me look like Frank Zappa. Javier: ah, blues style… Yeah, Frank! (?) Javier: I’m gonna play some Gregorian chants… Kinsee: hahahahaha It’s actually the guy who helped Santana become the famous musician he is today. He’s one of the first guitar players to come out of Mexico who really revolutionized the sound of the electric guitar.īut if you think that guitarist you just heard….is this guitarist you’re hearing now….īecause the famous electric guitar player I’m gonna tell you about today… King and T-Bone Walker…Īnd then took that sound and went on to play for huge stadium-sized crowds in the 60s and 70s. He came of age listening to Blues greats like B.B. This legendary Mexican guitar player got his start right here at the border….in Tijuana…. You might recognize the fusion of Latin sounds with soaring electric guitar… Maybe you’re familiar with this guitar legend playing underneath me right now… Music Clip By Javier That Sounds Like Santana From KPBS and PRX, this is Port of Entry…
