The ensemble consists of four clarinets, three trumpets, a tambora, a tarola, a tuba (Sousaphone style), three trombones, and three singers.
Banda el Recodo was founded by Don Cruz Lizárraga from Sinaloa, Mexico. Although he had to drop out of high school to work, Lizárraga was an excellent bandleader and musician. Self-taught on the clarinet, he was forced to sell one of his hogs to pay for his new musical instrument. Once he moved to Mazatlán, Sinaloa, Lizarraga signed a deal with RCA Victor and soon formed Banda el Recodo. Since his death in 1995, Lizarraga's son has taken over the group and undertaken extensive international tours. Today, Banda el Recodo continues to be one of the most famous and most popular Mexican folk music bands of all time
Te Voy a Olvidar

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Y hasta te comparaste con toditas las estrellas
Inalcanzable te sentiste en un segundo
Y burlaste mi cariño hiriendo mi amor profundo
Tu no tienes perdón
No mereces ni si quiera que mencione tu nombre
Ahora cuenta me doy que no fui para ti
Ya no te voy a rogar
Pa que te quedes conmigo
Que a mi me da igual
Que te quieran o te manden al olvido
Ya no te voy a rogar
De una vez te lo digo
Te me vas a amolar
Yo buscaré en otros brazos nuevo abrigo
Que ahí como me vez te lo aseguro
Ya esta bacante tu lugar
Y hay dos que tres por ahí
Que quieren conmigo
Te confiaste demasiado en tu belleza
Y hasta te comparaste con toditas las estrellas
Inalcanzable te sentiste en un segundo
Y burlaste mi cariño hiriendo mi amor profundo
Tu no tienes perdón
No mereces ni si quiera que mencione tu nombre
Ahora cuenta me doy que no fui para ti
Creyendo ser tu hombre
Ya no te voy a rogar
Pa que te quedes conmigo
Que a mi me da igual
Que te quieran o te manden al olvido
Ya no te voy a rogar
De una vez te lo digo
Te me vas a amolar
Yo buscaré en otros brazos nuevo abrigo
Que ahí como me vez te lo aseguro
Ya esta bacante tu lugar
Y hay dos que tres por ahí
Que quieren conmigo.
