RHINO DANCES WITH "THE
WOLVES"
First Single-Disc Los Lobos Collection,
Available February 14, Includes A Previously
Unreleased Song
LOS ANGELES - Los Lobos embody East L.A.'s
cultural diversity with an ever-changing
mix of traditional Mexican music, Tex-Mex,
and roots rock. On Valentine's Day, Rhino
Records salutes the band with corazón
with the group's first single-disc hits
collection. WOLF TRACKS: THE BEST OF LOS
LOBOS is available February 14 at regular
physical and digital retail outlets and
at www.rhino.com for a suggested list price
of $18.98.
WOLF TRACKS: THE BEST OF LOS LOBOS contains
more than an hour of wildly eclectic music
by David Hidalgo on vocals/guitar/accordion,
Conrad Lozano on bass/vocals, Louie Pérez
on drums/guitar, Cesar Rosas on guitar/bajo
sexto/vocals, and Steve Berlin on saxophone/keyboards.
The album features 20 of the band's most
beloved songs spanning nearly two decades
and includes the previously unreleased
track, "Border Town Girl," recorded
during the sessions for The Neighborhood.
Arranged chronologically, the collection
kicks off with "Let's Say Goodnight" and
the Grammy©-winning "Anselma," a
pair of tracks from the band's 1983 EP
...And A Time To Dance. WOLF TRACKS: THE
BEST OF LOS LOBOS features five selections
from Los Lobos' first full-length album
How Will The Wolf Survive? including the
title-track, "Don't Worry Baby," "A
Matter Of Time," "Corrido #1," and "Evangeline." More
than 100 critics cited the album as one
of the best of 1984.
Three years later, Los Lobos found mainstream
success to match their critical acclaim
on the soundtrack to La Bamba. The title
track to the Ritchie Valens biopic became
a #1 hit for Los Lobos, and its follow-up
single, "Come On, Let's Go" made
the Top 40. The band also reached out to
new audiences in 1987 with the moody By
The Light Of The Moon, represented here
by "One Time One Night," "Set
Me Free (Rosa Lee)," and "Shakin'
Shakin' Shakes." Also included on
WOLF TRACKS: THE BEST OF LOS LOBOS is a
live version of the Mexican classic "Volver
Volver" recorded in 1987. WOLF TRACKS:
THE BEST OF LOS LOBOS is rounded out with
selections from the band's La Pistola Y
El Corazón (1988), The Neighborhood
(1990), Kiko (1992), This Time (1999),
and Good Morning Aztlán (2002).
