Latin Grammy winner Cristina Salinas stepped into the recording studio to pay tribute to a late Tejano icon. Her heart carried two decades of memories, love, and admiration for the man who had shaped her musical journey: Jimmy Gonzalez, the revered multi-Grammy Award winner that passed away in 2018.

A Long-Awaited Project

Cristina, known for her role as Jimmy’s steadfast backup singer, had harbored a dream—a tribute to the maestro who had guided her every note and her vision materialized. “A Tribute to Jimmy” emerged, a labor of love that resonates with every chord.

The Heartfelt Album

Produced by the legendary Abraham Quintanilla for Q Productions, this album is more than a collection of songs. It’s a heartfelt conversation between Cristina’s soulful voice and Jimmy’s enduring legacy. Each track carries the weight of memories shared on stage, late-night rehearsals, and the magic of live performances.

Here’s a glimpse of the musical journey within:

  1. “No Soporto Más”
  2. “Amiga Mía”
  3. “Calla”
  4. “Estúpido Romántico”
  5. “Vuelvo”
  6. “Quisiera”
  7. “Ya No Quieres Tú Mi Amor”
  8. “La Diferencia”
  9. “Quiero Ese Amor”
  10. “¿Acaso No Soy?”

Jimmy’s Legacy Lives On

As the notes blend and Cristina’s voice weaves through the lyrics, we remember Jimmy Gonzalez—the man who transcended genres, touched hearts, and left an indelible mark on Tejano music. His absence is palpable, but his spirit dances in every beat of this tribute.

Cristina’s words resonate: “It took me 2 decades… and I’m grateful to have shared the stage with a wonderful man, who even till this day is extremely missed. I loved him like a father, a mentor, and a friend. He will always be in our hearts and our music.”
