comment #1: | A-side is recorded in San Antonio at April 2, 1934. The song is written in 1916. Mexican vaquero song strongly associated with the Mexican Revolution. Cucaracha means cockroach in Spanish. Drug addicted reactionary general Huerta was mocked with the song; also La Cucaracha was the name of Pancho Villa's shining black automobile. |
