4.0 out of 5 stars
An excellent review of the Mexican-American music scene.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Barrio Rhythm: Mexican American Music in Los Angeles (Music in American Life) (Hardcover)
This book represents a scholarly analysis of music forms that are familiar to many Americans, yet whose origins are not always known. Mr. Loza obviously knows the material on a first-name basis and sets it out in painstaking clarity. Also included are interviews with notable purveyors of popular Latin music (Los Lobos, Poncho Sanchez, Lalo Guerrero, et al). For anyone with more than a passing interest in the richness of Mexican-American music and for lovers of its contemporary forms, this book provides a rich bed of information.
