LOS LOBOS

07-11-12 Brooklyn Bowl, Brooklyn NY

Many years ago our Washington DC-area pals Gina and Aaron turned Marti and me on to Los Lobos, a great band from East Los Angeles. Yesterday I was following a thread about Los Lobos on Facebook. For a number of dates they'll be on the Wheels Of Soul Summer Tour 2016 with the Tedeschi Trucks Band and the North Mississippi Allstars. Coincidentally, today Marti (shown here with Gina in 2006 in Barcelona) reminded me that her BFF was flying down to Nashville from suburban Maryland to hang with her for a few days. In their honor I went on a search for a good Los Lobos concert on the Interwebs.



Here's the audience tape I found:

I'm pretty sure the first time the four of us went to see them live was at a tiny club called Adam's in DC's Foggy Bottom neighborhood. This would have been in the mid-1980s. At the time Los Lobos were still playing Los Angeles-area weddings interspersed with their early tours! And they had remained their unassuming selves a few years ago when Marti and I got to hang with them after a gig in Amsterdam. I believe our pal Steve Haze took us backstage and we chatted with them as if we'd known each other forever.

Straight-ahead dudes.
