I remember when the movie came out about Richie Valens when I was a kid and Los Lobos did the music on the soundtrack. I have not really paid any attention to them since then, but recently I bought a 5 CD pack from Basement Discs on a trip to Melbourne and it is some of the most kick arse cool, rocking music I have ever heard.

Anybody else fans out there ?
 
I've got "This Time" which is pretty good.

You've just reminded me that I need to get more, so thanks :thumbsu:
 
I bought the 5 CD box on the strength of an interview that I heard between Tom Waits and Lucky Oceans on Radio National.

Tom Waits selected a number of songs and when he was about to play Los Lobos, Lucky Oceans said "I think they are the best rock n roll band in the world" and Tom Waits said, "well that makes two of us".

That is a pretty high recommendation ! I agree that the early to mid 80s albums are the ones that I am enjoying the most, but the other stuff is fantastic too.
