History [link]

1973-79: Formation and early releases [link]

Vocalist/guitarist David Hidalgo and drummer Louie Pérez met at Dixon High School in Dixon, California, and bonded over their mutual affinity for obscure musical acts such as Fairport Convention, Randy Newman and Ry Cooder.[1][2] Pérez recalls, "We’re looking at each other, 'You like this stuff? I thought I was the only weird one.' So I went over to his house one day for about a year, which we spent listening to records, playing guitars, and starting to write songs."[1] The two borrowed reel-to-reel recorders from a friend and created multi-track recordings of music spanning from parody songs to free-form jazz.[1] They later enlisted fellow students Cesar Rosas and Conrad Lozano to complete the group's lineup in 1973.[2]

The band members were unsatisfied with playing only American Top 40 songs, and began experimenting with the traditional Mexican music they listened to as children.[2] This style of music received a positive reaction from audiences, leading the band to switch genres, performing at hundreds of weddings and dances between 1974 and 1980.[2] However, Los Lobos took notice of the popular groups on the Hollywood music scene, and added influences of rock to its sound.[2]

Originally, they called themselve Los Lobos del Este (de Los Angeles) ["The Wolves of the East (of Los Angeles)"], which was a play on the name of a norteno band called Los Lobos del Norte and the fact that they (Los Lobos del Este) were from east L.A. The name was quickly shortened to Los Lobos.[3]

[edit] 1980-88: How Will the Wolf Survive? and commercial success

The band's first noteworthy public appearance occurred in 1980 at the Olympic Auditorium in Los Angeles when they were hired by David Ferguson and CD Presents to open for Public Image Ltd.. In 1983, the band released an extended play entitled ...And a Time to Dance, which was well-received by critics but only sold about 50,000 copies.[4] However, the sales of the EP earned the group enough money to purchase a Dodge van, enabling the band to tour throughout the United States for the first time.[4] Los Lobos returned to the studio in the summer of 1984 to record its first major label album, How Will the Wolf Survive? in 1984.[5] The album's title and the title song were inspired by a National Geographic article entitled "Where Can the Wolf Survive", which the band members related to their own struggle to gain success in the United States while maintaining their Mexican roots.[4]

The film Colors includes "One Time, One Night" in the opening credits although the song was not included on the soundtrack album. In 1986, members of Los Lobos appeared alongside Tomata du Plenty in the punk rock musical Population: 1. In 1987, they released a second album entitled By the Light of the Moon. In the same year, they recorded some Ritchie Valens covers for the soundtrack to the film La Bamba, including the title track which became a number one single for the band. In 1988 they followed with another album, titled La Pistola y El Corazón featuring original and traditional Mexican songs.

[edit] 1988-94: The Neighborhood and Kiko

In the late 1980s and early 1990s the band toured extensively throughout the world, opening for such acts as Bob Dylan, U2 and the Grateful Dead.

Los Lobos returned with The Neighborhood in 1990, and the creative and wildly experimental Kiko (produced by Mitchell Froom) in 1992. In 1991, the band contributed a lively cover of "Bertha", a song which they often performed live, to the Grateful Dead tribute/rain forest benefit album Deadicated. In 1994 they also contributed a track, "Down Where the Drunkards Roll", to the Richard Thompson tribute album Beat the Retreat. In 1993, they performeed "Feliz Navidad" on the film Sesame Street Stays Up Late!.

On the band's twenty-year anniversary they released a two-CD collection of singles, out-takes, live recordings and hits entitled Just Another Band from East L.A.

[edit] 1995-98: Papa's Dream and Colossal Head

In 1995, Los Lobos released the prestigious and bestselling record Papa's Dream on Music for Little People Records along with veteran guitarist and singer Lalo Guerrero. The band also scored the film Desperado. The album track "Mariachi Suite" won a Grammy Award for Best Pop Instrumental Performance, and stands as their last Grammy Award to date (the other two Grammy Awards were in the category of Best Mexican-American Performance in 1983 and 1989 for the song Anselma and the album La Pistola y El Corazon).

In 1996 they released Colossal Head. In spite of the fact that the album was critically acclaimed, Warner Brothers decided to drop the band from their roster. Los Lobos spent the next few years on side projects. The band contributed along with Money Markto the AIDS benefit album Silencio=Muerte: Red Hot + Latin produced by the Red Hot Organization performing "Pepe and Irene."

1999-2006: Signing to Mammoth Records and subsequent releases [link]

Los Lobos signed to Mammoth Records in 1999, and released This Time. Mammoth also reissued 1977's Del Este de Los Angeles. In 2000, Rhino/Warner Archives released the Cancionero: Mas y Mas boxed set.

In 2002, the band released their Mammoth Records debut, Good Morning Aztlan; they released The Ride in 2004. The Ride featured artists such as Tom Waits, Mavis Staples, Bobby Womack and Elvis Costello covering Los Lobos music along with the band.

Los Lobos released its first full-length live-show DVD Live at¨the Fillmore in 2004. The DVD captures the band's act over a two-day period in July at the famed San Francisco venue.

In September 2006, Los Lobos released The Town and the City (Mammoth Records) to much critical acclaim.[6][7] The album's lyrics deal with Louis Perez's childhood in East Los Angeles while the music portrays complex and original soundscapes reminiscent of their previous release Kiko. Cartoonist Jaime Hernandez did the artwork for the album.[8] The album is told in the first-person, with each song serving as an episodic step.[9]

[edit] 2007-present: Tin Can Trust

In 2007, the group performed the song "Billy 1", Bob Dylan's cover from Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid album, recorded in I'm Not There soundtrack. Also in 2007, they accepted an invitation to participate in Goin' Home: A Tribute to Fats Domino (Vanguard), contributing their version of Domino's "The Fat Man".

In 2009, the group released an album of Disney covers, Los Lobos Goes Disney (Disney Sound/Walt Disney Records). Also in 2009, the group participated in a tribute album to the late Doug Sahm, Keep Your Soul: A Tribute to Doug Sahm (Vanguard).

In 2010 Cesar Rosas and David Hidalgo were featured artists in the Experience Hendrix Tour. On August 3, 2010 the group released their first album of new material in 4 years, entitled Tin Can Trust, through Shout! Factory, which features two Spanish-language tracks.[10]

    Lobos Island

    Lobos (Spanish: Isla de Lobos,pronounced: [ˈisla de ˈloβos]) is a small island of the Canary Islands (Spain) located just 2 kilometres (1 mile) north of the island of Fuerteventura. Politically it belongs to the municipality of La Oliva on the island of Fuerteventura. It has an area of 4.68 square kilometres (1.8 sq mi). It has been a nature reserve (Parque Natural del Islote de Lobos) since 1982.

    The island is accessible to tourists via a short ferry ride from Corralejo, in the north of Fuerteventura. It has day facilities and weekend homes of local fishermen. At the northeastern end of the island is the Punta Martiño Lighthouse, the lighthouse keeper and his family were the last permanent inhabitants of Lobos, until the light was automated in the 1960s.

    In 1405, Lobos Island served as resupply base for Jean de Béthencourt's conquest of Fuerteventura.

    Origin of name

    Lobos Island (Wolves Island) was named for the large number of sea wolves, also called monk seals, that once lived there. The monk seals were the island's only inhabitants when it was discovered by the Spanish conquerors of the Canaries archipelago in the fifteenth century, but with the arrival of man, these animals were hunted on a massive scale by sailors and fishermen who saw them as a source of food, fat and skin. As a result of this hunting, the species eventually became extinct on the island and its presence now is only occasional.

    Dream Lover

    by: Los Lobos

    That candy color clown they call the Sandman
    Tip toes to my room, every night
    Just to sprinkle stardust and to whisper
    Go to sleep, everything will be alright
    Every night I hope and pray
    A dream lover will come my way
    Someone to hold in my arms
    And feel the magic of their charms
    Because I want someone
    To call my own
    I wanna dream lover
    So I don't have to dream alone
    Dream lover, where are you?
    With a love, oh, so true
    And the hand that I can hold
    To feel you near as I grow old
    Because I want someone
    To call my own
    I wanna dream lover
    So I don't have to dream alone
    Someday, I don't know how
    I hope you'll hear my plea
    Someway, I don't know how
    You'll bring your love to me
    In dreams, in dreams
    My love lies all in dreams
    Dream lover, until then
    I'll go to sleep and I'll dream again
    That's the only thing to do
    Till my lover's dreams come true
    Because I want someone
    To call my own
    I wanna dream lover
    So I don't have to dream alone
    I wanna dream lover
    So I don't have to dream alone
    No, I wanna dream lover
    So I don't have to dream alone
    I wanna dream lover
