Los Lonely Boys – Texican Style (Live From Austin)Los Lonely Boys – Texican Style (Live From Austin)
{Recorded live at Auditorium Shores, Austin, Texas, U.S.A. on March 20, 2004}

Wow, these three Garza brothers have literally conquered the world with their hard hitting playing and super harmonized vocals. While relatively new to the scene they are absolutely fantastic - they sound great, have a ton of energy, produce tight music, and in my humble opinion the best new band (period). Their style is part rock, part Latin blended in Texas blues roots and solos.

This concert was high energy from the beginning. Jojo and Henry alternated in singing. At time it was two or three of them singing, in perfect harmony.

Supper Time was written when getting off of Willie Nelson’s bus. Jojo (bass) played guitar while Ringo (drums) and Henry (guitar) sang. During the song both Jojo and Henry played the same guitar and there was a kazoo, yes, I said kazoo solo.

This concert followed the debut of their self-titled album that has gone double platinum and won them a Grammy. I told you they were good, and to think they are just in their twenties.

Throughout the concert these guys were in the groove, movin’ and jumpin’ while playing. Both encore songs were high speed instrumentals. Jojo played bass on the ground as if pedal steel. Both Henry and Jojo played their guitar/bass with only one hand, while extending their instruments towards the screaming audience followed be a behind the head solo.

Man do these guys have talent. Their songs in both English and Spanish are really, really good. I will visit this DVD often. Cornbreads recommendation, which goes along with Big Daves, is to get this DVD. Get their CD’s and try and catch a live show. You won’t be sorry.

Ciao' for now, peace.
