You should see the mountain jams concert with Derrick Trucks it's bad ass David & Cesar definitely hasn't lost a beat for sure
Two of the greatest albums ever, The Neighborhood and Kiko...hell, all their records are great.
David Hidalgo has always been in my top 10 guitarists of all time; Los Lobos one of my all time favorite bands
I love how at the end of the last verse of Mas Y Mas David lets out that great scream and chuckles to himself as he starts shredding again on that Les Paul.

Don! You're the man! Such a great, great band. Thank for posting.
LOVE this version of Mas Y Mas....reminds me of how intense it is to see it here vs in a concert video...imagining people who never saw Los Lobos hearing it brings chills of joy....ROCK ON FOREVER GUYS!!!
What an amazing band. They don't make em like that anymore.
Driving to work as a very very, old gardener that went to the same Jr. college Chabot..at the same time as Mr. Hanks....and I hear this insanely good song on the KRUSH FM and later I discover its Kiko and The Lavendar Moon. LONG LIVE DAVID HIDALGO and the boys from East LA!!!

Excellent musicians. Love it!
Oh heck yeah, thanks for putting these all together! They're one of my favorite live crews ever, seen them every chance I've had. They just get the lead out, every time.
One of my favourite bands! Thank you, thank you, Don G.
Miss Dave and Los Lobos rocking out the night 😊😀💖💖💖💖💖‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️
Never saw the Guadalajara Guido bit before. That was awesome!
Great mix. I adore these guys and put them in my top 10 favorite bands ever. I remember my first time hearing them - I bought Kiko and the Lavender Moon and was hooked. I’d never heard anything like it before, or since.

The RRHoF is a worthless honor anyway. I mean, when they induct Chaka Khan and Madonna over other acts like Los Lobos, Iron Maiden, Motorhead, etc, they've lost all credibility.

It is.
Good call putting this one together, Don! David Hidalgo makes a dedication at the start of "This Time" that I think is a reference to a guest earlier in the show. The guest was a young man who's family owned a farm. Dave asked him some kind of farming related question. The kid's answer was "The Mexicans do that." Got a pretty good laugh from the audience and then Dave asked someone to please check and see if the band had left.

He referred to a kid named John-Mark, who was one of the champions of the “National Hollerin’” contest. Though there was no such conversation with him where he said “The Mexicans do that.” Nor did Dave ask if the band had left.

@@dongiller Well I'm left wondering why he bothered to make the dedication. I know my brain likes to make stuff up, but I'm very sure there's an episode where some young man says something obliquely racist and Dave asks if the band is still here. Such a fan of The Loboses am I that I also recall reading about how they all thought the whole thing was very funny. Probably read that in the Wahoo Gazette. None of this affects my complete enjoyment of this compilation though, Don.

It was in their NBC contract to accompany bands on Late Night. As for Late Show, sometimes they played with the musical guest, sometimes they didn’t. When they did, it was because the music guest asked them to.

Particularly when, on Dream in Blue for instance, Louie and Conrad don’t even appear to be on stage. Surely that can’t be Los Lobos’ decision?

I had the same reaction. It looks to me like it's Will Lee on bass for all three of the Late Night performances, with Conrad only showing up to play tamborine on "Reva's House". I don't get why they'd do it, though. Especially for "Dream In Blue", that bass line is the backbone of the whole song; they should have let Conrad do his thing.
It would have been nice if they had included the ENTIRE band, rather than just three of the band and David's studio musicians (who while being great musicians, are NOT Los Lobos!)
Does that guitar intro to "Reva's House" at 5:30 remind anyone else of Led Zep's "Dancing Days?"
Plus Hidalgo was a co revolutionary along with Benito Juarez, from Spain. Not our David Hidalgo. There are statues of Benito Juarez and Hidalgo in Los mochis
