Roots and Rhythms
Sunday March 24th, 2024 with Dick Altavista
Los Lobos began in East L.A. in 1974. They are still going strong today. In Part one of my look at this band that can play any music made in America I’ll cover the years 1978-1990.

Neil, Thanks for your kind words. Not only will there be a part two but also part three which will be all covers. Just an amazing band. I’ve only seen them live once. Also check out the excellent book: Los Lobos: Dreams In Blue by Chris Morris. An excellent history of the band.
