My wife (then girlfriend) and i stumbled across these guys at The River Cafe in Puerto Vallerta in 2000 or so. Had never heard of them but fell in love with their music (and each other) that night. We've seen them about 6 times since and, although they've technically retired, we still expect to see them perform a few more times in years to come. All their albums are well worth owning.

Heard these guys perform this on their penultimate farewell tour.
Just needs a little patience which is soon rewarded.

Had the same reaction- brought back memories of "Cat Steven's" Lady D'Arbanville from (1970?). Enjoyed this song, but always wonder if its that positive melody reference in the back of the mind that adds to the value...

A "being in love" song. Thank you Bill, first time for me to hear Willie and Lobo. Great |

Is this the Lobo who used to be around in the 70's? Unfortunately can't remember much abouty him except he had some mellow guitar sounds goin on as well. Either way, this is a great track.

Great to see awareness of the great flamenco guitarist Manitas de Plata. Try and have a listen to his work if you get a chance, truly a genius.

My buddies! First saw them at the Palms Playhouse in Winters, CA, then took the family down to Puerto Vallarta to catch them perform al fresco at a New Years Eve dinner/concert/fireworks celebration (tip: they do this most every year). Great shows!

I was originally introduced to Willie and Lobo by my parents, a retired couple that likes to eat early and complain about the weather. Apparently, age doesn't affect musical taste. I love these guys.

They have so much passion and joy in what they are doing! Wow!
Exactly.
Just caught them live a month ago on what was apparently their farewell tour. Very cool duo. I'm glad I had the chance to see them a few times over the last number of years. |

Huh, I always wondered what Willie Nelson and Los Lobos would sound like...
