Peace

From the San Francisco Chronicle

Seeing as I get so many hits from my past live Los Lobos post (now disappeared into cyberlimbo), I thought I would humor those of you who are into these awesome musicians.

This is a charity gig from late September in San Francisco, for a real worthy cause, as one would expect, called Seva. Check it out and donate if you can and are so inclined!!

Guests include Bonnie Raitt, Jackson Browne and some dude named Elvis:

Thanks go out to the original taper who goes by the name of RasBobre!!

I took the FLAC file and remixed the sound w SoundForge. Maybe I overdid it w the treble, but hey, I ain't no Butch Vig (nor would i wish to be, actually..).

Enjoy, WolfHeads!!:

Slight Return

Back from a long awaited and long overdue hiatus, aka vacation.


To celebrate, a reup requested by a Mr "Tobi" of Los Lobos live and acoustic in 2005. So here you go, bud. I re-equalized it from the original FLAC files, so if you downloaded this from here before, I do believe this sounds better.
Actually as part of my vacation I was just in Chiquinquirá, mentioned on the 6th track here, "El Cuchipe", which is a traditional Colombian/andean song:

"De Chichinquirá yo vengo de pagar una promesa / Ahorita que estamos solitos dame un besito Teresa"

It's a small town in the "departamento" of Cundinamarca. The Virgin of Chichinquira is the patron virgin of Colombia, and many people still to this day make long pilgrimages to, like the song says, pay off a promise.
