 MTV.com - Los Lobos
Los Lobos was one of America's most distinctive and original bands of the '80s.
From their very first recordings their rich musicality was apparent; on nearly every subsequent record they have found ways to redefine and expand their sound, without ever straying from the musical traditions that form the heart and soul of the band.
In the next four years, they released a marginally successful attempt to make their wildly eclectic sound palatable for a pop audience (By the Light of the Moon), a soundtrack of old Ritchie Valens songs that was a hit (La Bamba), and an album of traditional Mexican music (La Pistola y el Corazón).

 ONE WAY Music Magazine & CD - Rising Stars - John Vanderslice
In the early 70s, the Chicano Civil Rights Movement was bursting out of the streets of East L.A. and by the time Los Lobos began their journey, the images and memories of the 1970 rally through the Belvedere Park and Salazar (Laguna) Park were becoming a historical phenomena in the history of Mexican-Americans.
But what set Los Lobos above the rest of the bands in East L.A. was their creative ability to mix the traditional Mexican sound with rock, folk, salsa, blues, RandB, gospel, country, and pretty much anything else that sounded good to them.
Los Lobos’ ever-changing sound is the perfect symbol of musical freedom and the conglomeration of identities; it’s being everything and nothing at the same time.
