5.0 out of 5 stars Great live treat from the greatest band in the world - LOS LOBOS!, February 6, 2008

By	S. Henry "Tonemonster" (Odessa, TX) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

These guys get better and better all the time. The latest in a string of self-released treats for the fans, hot on the heals of "Chuy's Tape Box" and "Acoustic En Vivo".

This is a very diverse selection of live tunes that feature the tasty licks of a top-notch group of musicians. If you've never seen them live, this is a VERY nice representation of the Los Lobos live experience. Buy it now!

5.0 out of 5 stars Los Lobos unearth a gem, March 25, 2008

By	Charles G. Calderbank "Charlie C" (Sandy Hook, CT) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Taste and opinion are all relative. I love this band and the sound they produce. Los Lobos digging into the archives is a plus. This is nice hot live set. Enjoy it, if I had to campare to live at the fillmore and chuys tape box, I'd say not as good as Fillmore only because Fillmore has a bit of hard edge and I that's m preference only. I like more than Chuy's but for different reasons. Chuys is great historical Los Lobos but the songs clock a bit fast for me. So this is right in the middle.
All 3 are great choices.

5.0 out of 5 stars Los Lobos Live Jam , November 30, 2008

By	Daniel Hurley (Chesapeake, VA.) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

It's sometimes hard to forget that aside from David Hildago's crisp and beautiful vocals and Cesar Rosas' more bluesy and deep vocal sound that this band can really play. They are much more than a band that records great records but a classic group of techically superior musicians who can really play and jam. This live album catches them not just with their excellent vocal abilities but includes long sections of intrumental where the band just jams with soulful passion and the sound quality is just fantastic. If you are looking for just songs dominated by the vocals of Hildago and Perez, you may be intially disappointed but if you want to hear a great band play, jam musically 'with" great vocals you won't be disappointed. The most familar song from this 1997 tour collection is Evangeline but the more you play the CD,you will appreciate all the tunes. If you are going on a long drive, plug it in, enjoy the total band, you'll have a nice ride. Now if they would just tour more on the east coast.
