@Joaquincastrotx Los Lobos has a whole catalog that could contend, but "How Will The Wolf Survive" (1984) is stellar and put them on the map.

I was a kid in rural Wisconsin back then, and wore that cassette out — picked it up b/c of the stellar review in RollingStone.

"Through the chill of winter/Running across a frozen lake/Hunters hot on his tail/All odds are against him/With a family to provide for/The one thing he must keep alive..."

@DSmith_Tucson @rgod8855 @Joaquincastrotx same, but college student in upstate NY! Haven’t thought of them in years. Thanks.
