One damn fine album full of mariachi, Tex-Mex, zydeco, blues and good ol' time rock and roll. It was like a breath of fresh air in 1984, for there was nothing else like it - unless, of course, you have more Los Lobos albums around the house! Undoubtedly one of the best party albums I can think of (whether you're Mexican, Polish or Japanese!), How will the Wolf Survive? features the hard-edged growl of Cesar Rosas (singing "Don't Worry Baby", for instance) and the velvety crooning of David Hidalgo (notable on "A Matter of Time"), and the disparate vocal qualities of the two make for an excellent change-up in tenor and tempo as the album progresses. Not a clinker in the bunch, and a feel-good album by excellent musicians who know their chops. Muchos gracias, amigos!
I listened to this three times today. It's fun as hell. I always thought Los Lobos were 'that "La Bamba" band.' Now I'll think of them as 'that great "La Bamba" band.'
