Bronco (Mexican Band)
Bronco is a Mexican grupero band from Apodaca, Nuevo León. Their modern take on regional Mexican music in the 1980s and 1990s helped earn them a number of international hits. Band members José Guadalupe Esparza, Ramiro Delgado, Javier Villareal and José Luis "Choche" Villareal crafted a sound that paid tribute to the norteño tradition while incorporating modern instruments like keyboards, as well as a more melodic, pop style with elaborate jumpsuits. By 1990, ''Bronco'' proved that they were gaining large scale fame, in part due to the band's participation as protagonists of the film ''Bronco La Película'' (''Bronco: The Movie''), in which all four members of the band played a role. ''Bronco'' experienced international fame with help from their international hit ''Que No Quede Huella'' (''May No Traces Be Left'') from their 1989 album ''A Todo Galope'', for which they toured the United States, Puerto Rico, Spain, Argentina, Venezuela, Peru and many other countries.

The threshold quantity varies by type (such as album, single, music video) and by nation or territory (see List of music recording certifications).
