#79. The Legendary "Ideal" Label
"Te Recuerdo Mi Cancion" by Los Paves Reales

Click the arrow for music

The Ideal label began releasing 78s in the late 1940's. When they switched to LPs (and 45s), their covers were distinctive: a simple design featuring the artist's picture on a solid color background. Although I collected Tejano music, it was years before I found any of their albums. This was because they were a regional label that mainly catered to the Mexican American communities of South Texas, and they disbanded in 1960.
