10 Years before "La Bamba"

It was Ritchie's idea to record a typical Mexican folk song from Veracruz
and launch it on the market against the will of everybody. In 1987 Los Lobos became worldwide known thanks to the title song
of the movie "la Bamba" inspired in the life of the first hispanic
Rock & Roll star Ritchie Valens who had a big hit with it in 1958/59. It would
become one of the most popular songs ever and recorded by hundreds of
different artists in the past fifty years. Los Lobos' version made it to
number 1 for 3 consecutive weeks. Ten years earlier these guys recorded
a number of traditional Mexican songs like La Bamba called "Just another band
from East L. A. " whose original tapes have been recuperated in 2000.
What a treasure! Beautiful songs from ranchera to bolero and from
jarocho to a traditional Bolivian and Cuban song. An incredible band
still making great music today as Los Lobos or taking part in projects or groups
like the wonderful Los Super Seven. .


Incredible guitar work
Songs showcase the incredible talent of Los Lobos, making what is kinda cheesy music sound really cool. This album consists of all tradional-style songs, which were recorded before the band's rise to fame. I also recomend "This Time", a little more garage rock influenced, but also with some folk-songs on it.


Musico Mexicano con SOUL!!
I have given this CD to family and friends
and their reaction was the same as mine. Without a doubt this collection of Los Lobos
songs are fabulous.
If you grew up in or near a Mexican neighborhood this
music will touch your soul!!!.


In The Beginning There Was This Little Band From East L.A...
This album contains truly classic Mexican traditional songs that I used to hear as a child at family gatherings and continue to hear to this day with much pride and honor ! The guitar/acoustical arrangements are truly flawless and crisp. This is a must have for not only Los Lobos fans but those somewhat interested in their music. The rhythms are highly infectious and the melodies will stay with the listener long after the fiesta is over or the cd player stops ! Sabor A Mi is a timeless romantic bolero interpreted over the decades by other Latino artists (Trio Los Panchos come to mind). Here The Lobos do the song much justice with their perfect rendition. Guitars never sounded so awesome ! Yes, the Spanish language is beautiful (even if some listeners don't understand it). It's the music and harmonic vocals tht should captivate (and do) regardless of any language.
