Los Lobos' mission, it turned out, was to become a living repository of soulful American music as it has taken root in New Orleans, Chicago, Memphis, California and elsewhere.

Los Lobos, the little band from East Los Angeles, created an album that didn't recycle roots rock, country, R&B, or the Latin sound, but instead redefined it by stretching each of the genres' artistic potential.
Los Lobos are not novices at lyrical storytelling.
Los Lobos refined their childish storytelling on 1995's Papa's Dream, an inventive children's album, then later expanded their more adult-oriented experimental sound on Colossal Head, This Time, and the brilliant Good Morning Aztlan.

Los Lobos' latest CD, Good Morning Aztlan, takes a slightly more straightforward approach than their last couple of albums; not coincidentally, it was made without Froom and Blake onboard.
Together, they have made four Los Lobos albums, and Hidalgo, Perez, Froom and Blake have also made a pair of thoroughly bizarre CDs as the Latin Playboys.
That album marked the first full-length collaboration between the band and the producer/engineer team of Mitchell Froom and Tchad Blake.

And, while Los Lobos may play the more Latinate parts of their set with due fastidiousness, they're not averse to mixing genres together, or striking out in directions that have no previous musical signposts.
Alongside Anglo-American and Chicano pop, the future Los Lobos musicians were also getting a grounding in the more traditional Mexican music forms, like conjunto and norteno, which Hidalgo explains are effectively the same thing.
It's one of the stand-out tracks on the band's new live album, recorded live last year at the legendary Fillmore West, once the focus of the San Francisco hippy scene.

Nevertheless, Lobos make their presence felt, albeit indiscernibly, throughout the disc.

All in all, a worthwhile experiment, though if the band feels the need to take the fans on a nostalgia ride in the future, hopefully it would be with a work that give the band's guitar wizards and one of the best rock rhythm sections on the road today more room to stretch out.
After a tentative-feeling "Dream In Blue," the band settled into the first section of the album, unremarkable by Los Lobos standards.
And while that plays very well as a recording, it doesn't pace as a concert setlist nearly as well, as evidenced by the group's Tuesday (12/27) performance at West Hollywood's House of Blues.
