After the hugely successful LA BAMBA soundtrack, Los Lobos followed-up in 1988 with the gorgeous acoustic album (sung entirely in Spanish) LA PISTOLA Y EL CORAZON. 1990 found Los Lobos reinvigorating themselves with this set which presents the varied faces of rock, blues, boogie and even country. As always the songwriting is rich, with a powerful sense of place and community. A natural ease pervades the entire album, bringing to mind a sort of Mexican-American version of The Band (whose drummer, Levon Helm sings on a couple songs).

There are tender, quiet moments ("Little John of God") and hopped-up rockers ("Jenny's Got A Pony"), all played with verve. The musicianship is stellar throughout with the soloing always integral to the spirit of the song, and always free of any needless grandstanding. Well over ten years into their career at the release of this record, Los Lobos again prove themselves to be a national treasure.

Los Lobos: David K. Hidalgo (vocals, guitar, requinto jarocho, tiple, accordion, bass, bajo-sexto, violin, hawaiian steel guitar, koto guitar, drums, percussion); Cesar J. Rosas (vocals, guitar, bajo-sexto, huapanguera); Steven M. Berlin (saxophone, keyboards, clavinet, percussion); Conrad R. Lozano (bass, guitarron, vocals); Louis F. Perez, Jr. (drums, percussion, guitar, jarana, hidalguera).

Additional personnel: John Hiatt (vocals); Levon Helm (vocals, mandolin); Mitchell Froom (harmonium); Danny Timms (piano, organ, Wurlitzer); Jim Keltner (drums, percussion); Jerry Marotta (drums); Alex Acuna (hand drums, shekere, percussion).



Rolling Stone (10/4/90) - 3.5 Stars - Very Good - "...A bringing-it-all- back-home affair....finds a spiritual dimension, a sense of wonder in the course of everyday life..."
Spin (12/90) - "...captures both faces of Los Lobos: masters of greasy rock & roll...and sensitive balladeers...The ability to blend diverging impulses may suggest sophistication, but I'd prefer it if Los Lobos simply rocked hard 'round the clock..."
Entertainment Weekly - "Excellent songs..." - Rating: B+
Q - 3 Stars - Good
Stereo Review (12/90) - Performance "Muscular" / Recording "Clean" - "...Los Lobos always sounds as if the group reinvented rock-and-roll...crisp, steel-hard guitars pushed relentlessly by a claw-hammering rhythm section....a particularly well-rounded collection from one of America's most powerful bands..."
Audio Magazine - Performance B / Sound A
CD Review (12/1/90) - " Performance 9 / Sound 9 "
The Bob (Fall/90) - "...a work that is an all-encompassing effort of tuneful attitudes and tradition-inspired revelation....comes more from their hearts and souls than any other album they've recorded..."

Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars Most overlooked
This is probably Los Lobos most overlooked album which is really too bad because it is probably their best all around. This is pure and soulful. No experimental sound, just pure heart felt rock and soulful lyrics. Make sure to pick this one up.

The return to the slicker stylings and the integration of more forms are utterly comprehensible when one considers how much Latin popular music has changed in the past couple of years. The Kings are used to being on top of the charts, and they aren't about to throw in the towel to go back to folk music. That said, there are rootsy tunes here, though they are in the minority. That doesn't mean this record is a loss: far from it. On "Café," the band (with Eidel on accordion) goes backward, strutting through a joyous singalong son. "Canastero" is a mid-tempo ballad full of passion, pathos, and the kind of longing that's hard to find anywhere but in the Kings' best songs. One of the more experimental tunes, "Sol y Luna," features the upright bass playing of Bernard Paganotti (he's amazing throughout the album), and also a shimmering kit drum played by Patrice Renson, with Ava Saty's duduk playing a stunning little melody throughout this heady romantic tune. It may, in fact, be the finest moment on the record -- and an all too brief one. The percussion and upright bass playing on "Guaranga" are fine ballast for the fiery flamenco guitaristry on the instrumental. In sum, Pasajero is a mixed bag, in terms of an eclectic mix of tunes. The big-band numbers don't work quite so well, but they aren't in the majority here either. [Pasajero was re-released in 2007 on Nonesuch as an enhanced CD with bonus video footage] ~ Thom Jurek 2006 release from this modern Flamenco outfit from Spain, still going strong after 20 years of critically successful releases. Similar in style to their Roots album from 2004, Pasajero finds the band moving away from the keyboards that dominated their late '90s output, preferring to concentrate on the joyful sounds of the flamenco guitar, percussion, accordion and some brass. In essence, it's a return to form for the band. Throw in a little reggae and add some global grooves to the mix and you've got yet another outstanding Gipsy Kings album! 14 tracks including 'Si Tu Me Quieres', 'Pueblos' and 'Chan Chan'. Sony/BMG. It's been two years since the Gipsy Kings' masterpiece Roots, an album where they kissed big, extravagant production, as well as big drums and keyboards, goodbye. Apparently old habits ...
