Appearances in Rodriguez' films
[edit]"Malagueña Salerosa" is a re-arrangement of the classic mariachi standard, which Robert Rodriguez originally arranged for Desperado. It made its first appearance on this album, and also featured in Kill Bill: Volume 2. Rodriguez was credited in Kill Bill for his original guitar pieces in the film as well as part of Chingon.
"Siente Mi Amor" was featured on the soundtrack Once Upon a Time in Mexico, a film "shot, chopped and scored" by Robert Rodriguez, a follow-up to Desperado.
A shortened version of "Cuka Rocka" was also featured on the Once Upon a Time in Mexico soundtrack.
Bonus tracks
[edit]Some versions of the album feature, as a bonus track, "Sin City Theme (Chingonized)", another Rodriguez piece from a film he also directed.
The bonus edition additionally includes four tracks from the Machete soundtrack and the chingonized "Grindhouse Theme".
