Free Music Notes for Live at the Filmore
Free Music Review: Amazing live
Hit: 5 Stars
I've seen LLB several times and saw this concert live. It's often difficult to capture the essence of live music on CD, but this recording does a great job. I felt as if I was right there again standing at the lip of the stage. Cisco Kid was a particularly great cover, but all their music is fantastic. Both the original material and the covers!Free Music Review: Texican Show Down
Hit: 5 Stars
This is a great album and while I have never heard the studio version I'd still prefer the live version. I have completely fallen in love with Ringo's drumming talent."Onda" and "Dime Mi Amor" are the hottest tracks.Free Music Review: "Are you guys ready for some Texican rock n' roll?"

That's the opening cry of this great live performance by the best Mexican-American band since Los Lobos. The guitar work and harmony vocals are every bit as good as on their debut studio album - at times even better. If only the sound quality was as good as the artistry - it sounds tinny and boxy throughout. That's inexplicable in these days of digital recording, except for perhaps the desire to rush it into the market to fill the gap till the next studio album. But we can forgive that, because the Garza brothers still sound like they're cookin' with jalapenos - it's one of those live records that really make you wish you'd been there. All but three tracks are from their debut album - the exceptions are the original tune "Man to Beat", and a couple of great covers: "La Bamba" (following in the tracks of the aforementioned Los Lobos) and War's "Cisco Kid". (They also sneak in the harmonica lick from "Low Rider" during "Man to Beat".) Check out the 13-minute version of "Onda", which sounds more like a Santana tribute than anything else they do. So, despite my sound-quality reservations, and the fact that most of the tracks are live versions of the studio album, I highly recommend it - it's still the best live album I've heard in quite a while.
Free Music Review: Good but not great......
Hit: 4 Stars
Fantastic band...a breath of fresh air in todays music biz....however this is not a great record mostly because of the sound quality and for those familiar with the band and the other live cd they have out....it seems plodding and slow.....performances are good and the addition of Reese Wynans on keys is fantastic but if you really want to hear these guys smoke...see them live or pick up the other live cd they have out called" Live At Blue Cat Blues"Free Music Review: Live at the Fillmore - Los Loney Boys
