Azteca was an American Latin rock/jazz fusion group formed in 1972, started by Coke Escovedo and his brother Pete Escovedo, who had just finished stints with Latin rock pioneering band Santana. Azteca was the first large-scale attempt to combine multiple musical elements in the context of a Latin orchestra setting, and featured horns, woodwinds, multiple keyboards, three vocalists, guitars, drums, and multiple Latin percussionists.
Onstage, the band consisted of between 15-25 members, and toured with acts including Stevie Wonder. Other notable Azteca alumni included drummers Lenny White & John H. Brinck Jr., bassist Paul Jackson, vocalist Wendy Haas, trumpeter Tom Harrell, guitarist Neal Schon, vocalist Errol Knowles and percussionist Victor Pantoja. The group was also a musical starting point for Latin percussionist Sheila E. (the daughter of Pete Escovedo), who appeared with the band as a teenager. Two albums were released on Columbia Records, the self titled Azteca (1972) and Pyramid of the Moon (1973), before the band split up.
On September 15, 2007, a number of the surviving members of Azteca performed together for the first time in more than thirty years in Hollywood, California. The concert was recorded for an eventual DVD release.

Azteca Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The sun doesn't always shine
It′s alright to fall apart sometimes, mmm
I am not always you
And you are not always mine
It's alright to fall apart sometimes
After all is said and done
When we cry, when we laugh
I am half, you are half
The heart isn't always true
And I am not always fine
We all have an angry heart sometimes
After all is said and done
One and one still is one
When we cry, when we laugh
I am half, you are half
Look how far we have come
One and one still is
One moon (one moon)
One star (one star)
I love the one we are
One thread (one thread)
One line (one line)
Let′s stand still in time
One moon (one moon)
One star (one star)
I love the one we are
One thread (one thread)
One line (one line)
That runs through our lives
After all is said and done
One and one still is one
When we cry, when we laugh
I am half, you are half
Look how far we have come
One and one still is one ah
Ooh
The lyrics of Azteca's song "500 And Growing" touch on the theme of human imperfection and the idea that it's okay to not have everything together all the time. The first verse talks about how the sky isn't always blue and the sun doesn't always shine, which serves as a metaphor for the fact that life isn't always easy or perfect. Sometimes it's okay to "fall apart" and not have everything figured out.
The second verse talks about how the heart isn't always true and the singer isn't always fine. This part of the song acknowledges that people can have flaws and struggle with their own emotions. Despite this, the chorus repeats that "one and one still is one" and emphasizes the unity that exists between people.
The bridge of the song brings in the idea of time and how far the singer and their partner have come together. The use of celestial objects like the moon and stars further emphasizes the idea of unity and interconnectedness. The song ultimately ends on a note of acceptance and love for the imperfections that exist within ourselves and between others.
