Jerald reported from SXSW:
Back to Stubbs to catch Houndog, the David Hidalgo side project. Good
greasy, bluesy sounds.
I'm listening to this CD as I eat lunch, and I've got to say, it's really
cool. Very bluesy, as mentioned, and very primal. And getting back to the
blues fiddle thread that popped up last week, David Hidalgo plays a lot of
fiddle on this record, as well as all the other instruments. All (gritty,
anguished, gutbucket) vocals by Mike Halby, formerly of Canned Heat and John
Mayall's Bluesbreakers. More info at
http://www.mindspring.com/~krazyfish/loslobos/dog.htm Of the various Los
Lobos related side projects to come out in recent months (Los Super Seven,
Cesar Rosas solo album, Latin Playboys) this one is rapidly emerging as my
favorite.
