This town is in the State of Jalisco where mariachi music was invented in the 18th century. I love mariachi music–it has vocal harmonies, accordions, harmonicas, trumpets, guitars and strings—it is happy music. And you can dance to it, but you need a big sombrero.
MARIACHI REAL DE SAN DIEGO “Jalisco, Jalisco.”

This prehistoric monument is from about 3,000 BC, (before cooking) and is in Wiltshire, England. Back then they would hold proms there, long before slow dancing was invented. Archeologists can carbon date some doo wop songs back to that time. Paul Goldfinger photo © (Taken before they built the fence to keep out NJ tourists.)
