Los Lobos: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert From The Archives

Музыка

We've been filming Tiny Desk concerts for more than 10 years. While revisiting our archives, we discovered that some of our earliest concerts never made it to KZread!
Watch Los Lobos’ Tiny Desk concert from 2010: www.npr.org/2010/11/10/130810...
Felix Contreras | November 10, 2010
Los Lobos has proven time and again that a universal shared experience will always trump culture and language. The group writes music that speaks to all of us as individuals, yet can make us feel connected when we pack ourselves into a club to watch them perform.
I've been a fan of Los Lobos since I was 18 and the band was playing mariachi music on the campus of UC-Davis. I'm 52 now. I've seen many, many Los Lobos shows and even interviewed the band a handful of times, and yet I still get excited when I get a chance to see its members play.
This past summer, the group released a new album called Tin Can Trust. Thankfully, for Los Lobos, there's always a new record: songs to sing along to, stories to compare our lives to, cumbias to dance to. This short blast from behind Bob Boilen's desk has something new, something old and something to dance to. So pull the chairs back and grab a partner - it's time to dance.
Set List:
"Burn It Down"
"Yo Canto"
"Don't Worry Baby"

    They can PLAY ANYTHING! I saw them transform into the Beatles on a beautiful Lake in North Idaho AND so many years ago when they used my College Cafeteria as their Practice Studio. East Los Angeles College = "Just Another Band From East L.A." They mean it.

    Totally, extremely deserving. Real innovators, real Americana. When one sees the talent poor acts admitted to the ' Hall of Fame', it is almost an accolade to be snubbed.

    I'll never forget seeing Los Lobos for the first time. It was July 4th 1996 on the Furthur Fest. The only songs of theirs I was familiar with were their cover of "La Bamba" and "Kiko and the Lavender Moon". The video for the latter was in rotation on MTV in the early 90s. Honestly, I wasn't really expecting to care much for them... But I couldn't have been more wrong. They blew me away and left me speechless. They were so good that I was kind of bored the rest of the day. Whoever's idea it was to have Los Lobos go on so early should have been sacked. The engery, attitude, and musicianship they brought to the stage was unmatched. I've been a big fan ever since and have been fortunate enough to catch them live 4 other times since then. They are, without a doubt, one of the best live bands I've ever seen.

    I heard Los Lobos back in the day playing in Cleveland Ohio in the Flats entertainment area. My best friend, Ruben and I were part of handful of Chicanos there who understand the lyrics when they sang the Spanish songs. We made our presence known to the band, spoke to them and they acknowledged our support! They played a great gig and gained a big following that day in the Midwest.
