Dave Alvin, David Hidalgo, Flaco Jimenez, Los Cenzontles - 4th of July

[@thomashermann2785]

Dave Alvin - the most under appreciated musician in America

[@richstex4736]

I second that sentiment. He should be the Lifetime Poet Laureate of California.

[@GregoryLuce]

Not by me tho.

[@thomashermann2785]

@@GregoryLuce me either. Rock on Dave!

[@thomashermann2785]

@@richstex4736 good call! He should be.

Dave Hildago and Dave Alvin... wow. Two American masters.

[@acmeoyster]

Flaco also

[@martincouch3723]

Exactly-don't forget Flaco!

[@brianchandler1966]

I had the great fortune to see Dave Alvin open for Los Lobos at The Wiltern in L.A. NYE '87

[@kathysahagian7478]

Make that three

[@RevMikeBlack]

God bless America!!!

[@stormbringercoming8105]

Dave Alvin’s music is the soundtrack of a cross country road trip down every dusty road, back alley, every broken heart in America 🇺🇸. His songs represent the forgotten and the hurt and still persevere. He’s the man that Johnny Cash wanted to be.

[@SoCali_Surfer]

Man, you sum Dave Alvin's music so poeticly and succinctly! I took a screenshot!

[@arthurwild5734]

@@SoCali_Surfer very nice comment! I believe you capture the flavor of this man very well. Thank you!

[@bradkelley8732]

I think it was the day that King of California came out, and I was away visiting my folks in Knoxville TN. That afternoon, my GF at the time called me out of the blue and said she had just heard Dave's new album reviewed on NPR, and that we had to have it. I swung a big u-turn to the record store there in town and had it within 15 mins. If you could wear out a CD, that thing would be gone now. (Side note--I stayed with her for 10 of the 12 years mainly because of her taste in music.) But Dave has so many classic albums, and what a damn band THIS IS. Wow!

[@gregscavuzzo5457]

Dave Alvin , one of the best shows that I have ever seen, he was with The Guilty Women at The Folly Theater in Kansas City Missouri, unlike most of his contemporaries he played that same Fender that he is playing in this video, and the other players are some of the greatest musicians in the world, God Bless our Artists and Musicians and keep them safe

[@randyjimmiejamesbowles]

My late wife Sally Jo Davis' favorite singer. She got to give him a hug back in the 90's. She said he was very kind.

[@kathysahagian7478]

Awe

[@williamlieberman1205]

Damn ...wish there was a dvd of this..one hell of an evening..all those great musicians in one spot...wow

[@stolenc7]

This. Very much this. So much talent...

[@robroper]

Wow. Almost made me cry. What an amazing performance of Dave's best-known song. So magical to hear him singing with David Hildalgo. And Flaco!

[@motovita8695]

I've always loved this song but I would have thought that Long White Cadillac and maybe Abilene might be better known.

[@vperez2965]

It did make me cry. When the camera moved over to Flaco and his accordion...these beautiful guys are old. Dave had cancer during COVID. He's back on tour, but they are not going to be here much longer.

[@mountainwoodie9816]

Just saw Dave on his 25th Anniversary tour of King Of California..................still killing it!

[@davidbyerly9846]

What a line up! I'd love to see these 3 live.

[@jeremyironheart1653]

This is a real gem... After this Andersonville, Dry River, Ashgrove...

[@jimsiegert1519]

I’ve seen Dave, and Lobos, SO many times! EVERY show… amazing! Thanks to whoever caught this! ❤️

[@MSSwampDogMusicReview]

We don’t deserve to see such beauty and greatness !! I’m glad we snuck in here and saw it

[@Steve-yu5et]

What a wonderful version of this amazing song.

[@brianchandler1966]

Saw Los Lobos and Dave Alvin at the Wiltern Theater 12/31/87

[@garytotty3971]

Wow! The words are just beautiful, and then you hand it to a group of masters who simply take it beyond any expectations. I want an album!!

[@LosCenzontles]

Thank you!

[@garytotty3971]

@@LosCenzontles I want to buy an LP with all of you on it! Now for a confession: I first discovered Los Lobos when reading the old magazine Rolling Stone (many years ago) and bought an LP. (this is before CD's were invented). Over the years I've since picked up every LP or CD I came across, and was never disappointed. Yet I think I like this new group even more. This band is high on my bucket list to see in person

[@musikkunstetc.8465]

Thanks for posting this clip!!!

[@axelfoleyt]

Wonderful. Thanks for posting.

[@everttromp3876]

Mix between the Blasters and Los Lobos..Friends forever..

[@ncg25out]

Great video, tons of talent on that stage.

[@larrylinn8589]

Looking at this video reminds me a of Thee Midnighters in East Los Angeles band whom broke down many musical barriers.

[@SoCali_Surfer]

Not even on a stage...in someone's house! Imagine sitting on the porch in rocking chair experiencing that? No, I couldn't sit!

[@noddyninetythree4771]

I still can't believe just how lucky I am that I witnessed X performing this with Billy Zoom on guitar!

[@bpbatlaw]

Pete Sears in there on piano too! Beautiful sound.

mid-day summer dream. I arrive in Terlingua, TX late on a hot summer day, walk into the Starlite Cafe to this scene. Wouldn't be sure if I died and went to heaven or went to hell. Great song bt Robert Earl Keen
