There is so much to love about Los Lobos, starting with incredible harmonies, songwriting chops and stellar stage presence. This compilation contains all of the biggest hits by Los Lobos. Lead single “Someday” and “Down On The Riverbed” start with near-whispers before kicking into giddily catchy, fuzz box-driven hollered hooks. Cool, but I like their other actual stuff better like Just Another Band From East L.A.: A Collection (CD 2).
Down On The Riverbed is one of the best records ever. Be Still on Just Another Band From East L.A.: A Collection (CD 2) is solid and easy to listen to. The Neighborhood gives taste of what makes Los Lobos special as a musician. Vocals of Los Lobos in I Can’t Understand really capture me and are set perfectly to the rhythm. In Angel Dance it becomes nowhere more obvious that Los Lobos has yet to define own style. As always, Los Lobos’s lyrics are worth listening to again and again. You have to get essence of the Saint Behind The Glass’s power, to truly understand this masterpiece. The song feels complete. Wicked Rain (Live) is almost impossible to review. Kiko and The Lavender Moon - a classic song. When The Circus Comes is nothing short of a modern masterpiece. This track is just fantastic from start to finish. Bella Maria De Mi Alma is one of the coolest songs Los Lobos has ever recorded. Musically What’s Going On (Live) is superior to other tracks in Just Another Band From East L.A.: A Collection (CD 2). Album opener Wrong Man Theme is a bright, upbeat ditty. Blue Moonlight can be hardly overrated by any means; this is what Los Lobos is all about. Politician (Live) - I just love it. The sound in New Zandu is really warm and Los Lobos’s signature voice is still very much present.
