Recording information: The Fillmore, San Francisco, CA (10/23/2004). Even before Los Lonely Boys' self-titled debut album sold millions of copies and earned the band a Grammy award, those in the know traded stories about the Texas trio's legendary concerts. LIVE AT THE FILLMORE officially reveals what all the fuss was about. A no-holds-barred slab of rootsy Tex/Mex blues-rock with an all-important dollop of pop smarts, the record recalls the great live albums of the 1970s. Group leader Henry Garza is a genuine guitar hero who seems to know every lick that Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughan ever played, and his extended solo on "Dime Mi Amor" is one of the disc's highlights. As is often the case with sibling bands, the Garza brothers seem to communicate telepathically when it comes to singing; their harmonies are sweeter than ever on the a cappella tour de force "More Than Love." The 13-minute "Onda" showcases the full range of the combo's string-bending, soul-shouting, polyrhythmic rock prowess, coming off like a new-millennium version of a classic Santana instrumental jam.
Los Lonely Boys--three Mexican-American brothers born and raised in Texas--brought the concept of Tex-Mex music into the 21st century. Raised on the sounds of Texas rock, blues, and country, the virtuoso family band is also heavily indebted to both Willie Nelson (an early champion) and their father, Ringo Garza Sr., leader of the famed norteno act the Falcones. Los Lonely Boys' amiable mix of fiery guitar rock and smooth pop melodies earned them a Grammy in 2005. The trio released its sophomore album, SACRED, in 2006.
