Ruben Ramos's Bio:

In his first post-Grammy recording effort, Ruben Ramos - El Gato Negro - released A Class Act. With a masterful mix of good ol' Tejano, some smooth Latino mixed in and a nod to a classic Mexican sound.

A Texas native from Sugarland, Ruben Ramos and his band, The Texas Revolution, have reached the top in the Tejano music category. He stands at the head of a long family legacy of music, bands, and extraordinary talent. The story of that legacy is detailed on his Web site.

The Billboard Guide to Tejano and Regional Mexican Music said, "Ruben Ramos has developed a solid reputation as one of the smoothest singers and classiest bandleaders in the history of the genre." His achievements include: Grammy Winner (1999 for Los Super Seven), he was inducted into the Pura Vida Hall of Fame and into the Tejano music Hall of Fame, and he is a Multiple Tejano Music Award recipient. He released Tejanisimo in 1998.

Ramos' 1997 release, El Gato Negro Smooth, is another of his albums. You can learn more and hear sound clips of El Gato Negro at his excellent Web site, rubenramos.com.

Ruben Ramos Album Editorial:
With his cool demeanor and emotive but restrained singing Ruben Ramos represents the class act of Tejano. His ensemble is one of the last of a dying breed--the Iorquesta tejana or big-band Tejano style patterned after the Glen Millers and Tommy Dorseys. The 1990s Iorquestas are smaller combos but the horn section is crucial. The sound here is impeccable with bright horn power on the addictive Iranchera (popular Mexican song) Como un Suspiro a philosophical tune about living it up because life is like the wind. Ramos also injects blues attitude on Por un Carino about waiting for the right love and El 56 on good times gone by. The engine that drives this music though is the potent blend of whip-sharp percussions Ramoss classy vocal style and the mighty horn section--two trumpets trombone and three saxophones. Ramiro Burr
