Carlos y Jose toured relentlessly all over Mexico and in the U.S. -- California, New Mexico, Texas, and Arizona -- developing a loyal following. The group reached superstar status when their international smash "El Chubasco" shattered all Mexican sales records, and spread their fame to Florida, Puerto Rico, and throughout Central and South America. Their songs -- and sometimes the band itself -- have appeared in over 24 films, including Pistoleros Famosos La Coyota, and La Muerte del Palomo, and on Mexican and Puerto Rican television countless times. They have been nominated for numerous Latin Grammys, and won seven Gold and four Platinum recordings. They have also won the Aztec Gold Calendar Yuri award. Their 2013 album, Cabalgando por el Pacífico: En Vivo, is a music and video package that again put them on Billboard's Regional Mexican chart. In 2017, EMI/Universal began an aggressive reissue campaign that saw ten of their best-known albums re-released. International Musical Treasures proffered two multi-artist compilations: Duelo de Leyendas with Luis y Julian and Norteñas Llegadoras, a three-artist offering that that added Adolfo Urias. Meanwhile, AJR Records released a studio offering in June of 2017 titled 20 Rancheras. ~ Thom Jurek, Rovi
