El Conjunto Bernal, founded in the early s by two teenaged brothers from a poor farmworker family in South Texas, is recognized as one of the most innovative and influential groups in the history of Mexican-American music.
The group, which donned some of the style and fashion of the emerging rock era, achieved a popularity bordering on rock-style adulation.
