>>I have never heard anything she sang after 1979.<<
She was one hell of a Mariachi singer for many years — arguably one of the best ever.
Really good Mariachi is a lot of fun to listen to — a buffet for the ears.
Crappy mariachi (like what you get in restaurants and strolling bands in Mexico) is an affront on the ears.
I liked her singing in Spanish. As as a person, not so much.

Too me that would be the equivalent of being the best brain surgeon in all of Dogpatch.
