Hello once again everyone I’m your host Ray Shasho and welcome to another edition of Interviewing the Legends.
In 1957 Javier Bátiz founded a group called Los TJ's with which he picked up musical influences that were received in the Mexican border cities of black music, blues and R & B from people like T-Bone Walker, Muddy Waters, B.B. King, Chuck Berry, Howlin' Wolf, James Brown, among others.
Javier is known as a teacher of people like: Carlos Santana and Fito de la Parra (Canned Heat). Carlos Santana has always been recognized as the creator of the sound of Javier Bátiz. In the year 2000 he participated in Canned Heat's Disco Boogie 2000, with the theme ̈The world of make believe ̈ song that took the first places in Europe, which earned him to travel with Canned Heat on tour in in Italy.
In 2008 he released the album El Brujo (the wizard) USA as well as the presentation of the documentary Made in Mexico by Fito de la Parra, in the United States and presentations in Santa Ana, CA, at El Whiskey a Go Go, as well as at the Blues Fest Festival, also in his book The Flight of the Angel.
In 2016 he traveled to the city of Chicago to play with Buddy Guy in his place "The Legends."
