Nancy F gave it a10:
THE TOWN AND THE CITY is a flawless gem that contains some of the best songwriting efforts to date by David Hidalgo and Louis Perez. "LUNA", written by Cesar Rosas, is captivating. If you haven't listened to LOS LOBOS lately, you owe it to yourself to become acquainted with this aural odessy from East L.A.'s finest!
John H gave it a10:
Los Lobos is The Band, with longevity. Hard to believe they've kept the quality of their albums at this level for over 20 years... God bless em.
Jackie T gave it a10:
Another masterpiece from a great American band.
Cha D gave it a10:

salomey gave it a9:
they haven't sound this good in quite a bit this album is more wonderful than I can express right now the voices, the guitars, everything thank you Los Lobos (great album, bad review :D )
Lawrence P gave it a9:
Impossible not to love...the music and the guys that make it.
Todd W gave it a9:
Go tell every lost soul in every town and city: If Los Lobos didn't include primarily minority members, they would be hailed in the same breath as any other American recording artist you care to name in the popular Sewerstream. Perhaps it's a good thing for those of us who ignore conventional wisdom (idiocy?), because these guys have been making groundbreaking music for more than 20 years. Their latest is no different. If you don't like exquisite rock-n-roll with a touch of a Latin beat making you think about society's ills, keep your head up your nether orifice. You can have your American Idol flotsam and jetsam, leave the rest of us alone so that we may continue idolizing a great American band.
