“Take note of this return to the beauty of border primitivism. It’s killer diller!” —Billy F Gibbons, ZZ Top
There’s something powerful—and a little bit dangerous—happening at the border. It’s something that has to be heard to be truly understood. It emanates from a place where cultures collide and all the rules are broken. Its heyday may have come and gone, but its spirit moves across the ether to this day. It’s the eternal pirate AM signal, hailing from an uncharted no man’s land where a handful of hucksters, carnival barkers, troubadours and outlaws pitch their virtual tent and set the airwaves ablaze with a churning stew that is equal parts music and mayhem, sex and redemption, medicine and madness.
The sounds you are hearing are the ghosts of border radio, better known as X radio to those whose memory is truly in tune. Do not attempt to adjust your set. Chances are, you won’t even want to.
Los Super Seven, the rootsy Tex-Mex collective that emerged in the late 1990s, celebrates this edgy, no-holds-barred broadcast phenomenon in its debut Telarc release, Heard It on the X. Recorded in Austin, Texas, the album is a celebration of the freewheeling radio culture that took shape in the 1930s, when AM powerhouses like XERF, XEG, XERB and other American outlaw broadcasters along the Mexican side of the Rio Grande blasted a rich and mesmerizing mix of music, quack medicine, Bible-thumping, political stumping and other huckstering to all points north. Powered by as many as a million watts in some cases, X radio signals reached into nearly every corner of the U. S, and even as far away as Europe and Japan, well into the 1960s.

Rezensionen
F. Schöler in Stereo 6/05: "Wer die Kapelle liebte, die beim Dorffest in Peckinpahs Western "The Wild Bunch" musi- zierte und beim Auszug aus dem Kaff "La Golondrina spiel- te, wird von diesem Album fasziniert sein. Die Gast-Stars (etwa Lyle Lovett, John Hiatt) waren bei dem Mix aus Western Swing und Tex/Mex, Buddy-Holly-Pop, Willie-Dixon- Blues, mexikanischen Ohrwürmern und dem machtvollen Texas- Blues-Rock des Titelsongs in Hochform." J. Feyer in Rolling Stone 4/05: "Heard It On The X" ist ein richtiges All-Star-Album von Leuten, die nie richtig Stars wurden. Lyle Lovett, Rodney Crowell, Delbert McCli- ton, Joe Ely und Rick Trevino sind dabei, Calexico er- höhen als Backing-Band hier und da den Hip-Faktor."- Tracklisting
