I am listening to Los Lobos' upcoming release The Town and the City. Now, I've always had a certain respect for these guys; they're hard-working, skilled players with a competent finger dipped into multiple genres, emphasizing rock, soul, and traditional Mexican styles (and they're great live almost no matter what). Often times, though, despite David Hidalgo's silky-sweet vocals (one of the mor...

Los Lobos at the Filmore

Artist:
Woot! Got ticket to see Los Lobos supported by David Lindley next week end. Been a while since I last was at the Filmore, the ticket indicates assigned seating. Will post a review when I recover from the show. The last time I saw David Lindley, he had some things to say and memories to share of Warren Zevon and somehow there's a connection between all of them. Also have a recent side project by...

Track:
Back in 1988, a compilation came out on A&M called Stay Awake. It featured a cornucopia of artists covering tunes from Disney movies. Some of these versions were very inspired; some, not so much; and some were downright bizarre. Far be it from me to define what "bizarre" in music is, so I'll simply feature my favorite of the lot, from one of my very favorite bands. Louis Prima would be proud. G...

The sound of the Latin Playboys is just purely stunning - I don't know what else to say. I'm a great admirer of Los Lobos – “La Pistola y El Corazon” is one of my favorite songs, and the album with the same name is one of my favorite records.

That smiling face you see in the upper left hand corner passed away on Friday at the ripe old age of 15-1/2. They broke the mold when he was born. This being MOG, his favorite band was Los Lobos and his favorite song was "Shakin', Shakin', Shakes" which was appropriate because he had epilepsy. RIP dude.

I had the pleasure of discovering an incredible album yesterday, thanks to NYC's best radio station WFUV (yes, NYC radio is pretty awful these days, but FUV is one of the few exceptions, and delightfully non-commercial). The album is Los Lobos' 1992 release Kiko. I always liked what I heard from this band but just now realize that they are one of the more underappreciated and misunderstood ban...

Now that I am emerging from my January musical slump, I've been able to re-discover some of my favorite bands. I walked into the store and I had to purchase three new CD's.
