The earliest recording the archive lists is by Jiménez himself on Columbia 78 rpm, catalog 3651-C, with Mariachi Jalisciense; it is undated. Others recorded it too, among them Amalia Mendoza with the Mariachi Vargas de Tecalitlán on Victor, Pedro Infante, Lola Casanova, Rosa de Castilla, Los Diamantes and María Dolores Pradera.
