Let Los Lobos Take You Away to a Dentist's Office Waiting Room

Posted by on Wed, Jan 16, 2013 at 11:54 AM

(Benaroya) The beautiful Chicano sounds of Los Lobos have the power to transport you to sandy beaches, romantic vacations, and dentist's office waiting rooms—Los Lobos (Spanish for "the Panthers") are everywhere. I chose to write this blurb because I have a memory of my mom owning a Lobos CD, but when I called to interview her about them, she said it was actually my aunt that liked them and that the band was actually Los Lonely Boys. Oh. Oops. BUT, I do vaguely know of the Wolves (I was just kidding about them being panthers), and they seem like nice and talented guys. In fact, they still have pretty much the same lineup they had in high school! Which is where they met, more than 40 years ago!

Las Panteras is The Panthers. Los Lobos is The Wolves. Los Lonely Boys is los Chicos Solitarios.

Id also recommend The Latin Playboys (Los Playboys Latinos), which is a couple of Los Lobos (The Wolves) members with producer extraordinaire Tchad Blake (Tchad Blake).
