 Party like it's 1969! Feb 17, 2010
Well, I was three in 1969, but when I started to learn about the impact of the Sixties, I had to begin my search. Come to find out my Texican Hermanos had to dig down deep into the best of the Sixties to light their fire, too. I have loved Los Lonely Boys from the first time I heard Heaven. I got busy keeping tabs on them from that day. I have purchased every Deluxe Edition of their releases I could so that I could learn more about them on the companion DVDs. I have also enjoyed their Live DVD and their documentary on PBS. To now have the chance to have the Garza brothers breathe their own Picante Soul into five classics from the peak of Rock's Pinnacle of the Sixties is the BOMB! Crank it up and dance like it was 1969!
Party EP Feb 12, 2010
Okay, pretend you have the money to hire one of the world's great rock bands to perform for about half an hour at your birthday party. They get up on stage and instead of just giving a half-hearted effort and running off with the money, they groove into a string of absolute classics, personlizing them as only they can. You and your guests are blown away. Everyone is dancing. Smiles all around. That's what this EP gives you for just a few bucks.

 Los Lonely Boys...1969 Dec 04, 2009
Good stuff but for a band of this caliber it seems incomplete. Only 5 songs...all remakes. I think they could have pushed the envelope a bit harder.

1969 GREAT YEAR, GREAT MUSIC Nov 14, 2009
I have really enjoyed this cd. Being a 60's guy, I believe that the 60's had the best rock music ever. Including many of the best bands in the history of rock.
Back to this CD, all the songs are really done well, like only LLB can. I would have loved a CCR song or two included, such as (Born on The Bayou)or(Suzy Q)from 1969. But really, they can probably do justice on hundreds of 60's songs, I've heard them do at least 20 of them in several of their early shows. This CD is great to have. Mix it with original LLB songs a see how well they compliment.
GET THIS CD, IT'S OUTSTANDING

These Garza boys never cease to amaze me! Oct 30, 2009
As a child of the 60's and 70's, I was anxious to get my hands on a copy of this CD. They did not disappont me! Of all five tracks, I have to say I was a little confused by the addition of "Well All Right", being a Buddy Holly tune. Holly died years before 1969... But the Garza Bros did the song justice nonetheless. My first impression was a good one, listening to Santana's "Evil Ways". I was glad they didn't take too much creative license with the song, out of respect for Carlos, of course. I really have to say they put their own unique signature on each one of the tunes on this CD. "She Came In Thru The Bathroom Window" was amazing and nostalgic. Tony Joe White's "Polk Salad Annie" I think was the one song I was most impressed with. It's hard to follow T.J. White, but it was done with total respect to his genre and back-woodsy Southern style. The last track, "Roadhouse Blues" had me dancing like I had good sense...I'm a "sorta old" lady... I don't dance that much anymore. What a joy it was to listen to a reprise of great music given the proper respect by these 21st Century musical geniuses!! Kudos to my Texas home boys! Los Lonely Boys ROCK!!!
