    While initial listens don't suggest a classic like Kiko, one gets a feeling that this as a work that will reveal layers over time. [Sep 2010, p.104]
  2. When Los Lobos hook up with songwriters like ex-Grateful Dead lyricist Robert Hunter, things start to go downhill in a hurry.

    Tin Can Trust stands as a solid piece of work from the band. [Summer 2010, p.88]
  4. All of Tin Can's shifting tempos make you feel like you're getting a new song each time, but really, you've heard it all before.
  5. With its combination of acoustic rock, Spanish music, and mystical balladry, the album traverses all the styles Los Lobos has explored over the last 30 years-with a blues instrumental and a Grateful Dead cover perplexingly thrown in for good measure.
