  Another great fusion of Latin and Blues Music! August 31, 2008 Los Lonely Boys definitley have found a really, great formula for success. This great fusion of latin/blues music shows all the sides of Los Lonely Boys. It Shows their sides of spiritual, redemption, and hope for a better tomorrow.
  "Forgiven" is the best Los Lonely Boys album YET! August 25, 2008 It's hard to improve on perfection, but the creative genius that IS Los Lonely Boys continues to impress - album after album. 10.0 Olympic Scoring !
  stick to the earlier stuff August 24, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This album sounds like a watered down version of far fresher, far more interesting earlier work. What happened? Dunno. In a nutshell, my advice: Stick with the early stuff. It's way better. More interesting. Los Lonely Boys need to move forward, not regurgitate the past.
  Third Time's a charm! August 13, 2008 Los Lonely Boys never fail to amaze me. As young men sharing the music spirit that is ever changing, ever growing, moving through the facets of life experience. Like the cyle of a summer rain.. . songs of many potencies arrive in each track. The light clean smell of a rainclouds in the distance, to the rumbling and stratis changing of rolling clouds, growing to a thundering light storm, complete with a final brilliant rainbow. . Forgiven is one of these welcome rains.
I never quite know what to expect from Los Lonely Boys AND I love it! I heard a few of the songs live but was PLEASED to tears with each original strum of Henry's guitar, soaring voice of Jojo and powerful cadence of Ringo's drums (and VOICE) on this release.
With each song, I smiled listening to insight that Brothers Garza are sharing with us. Heart Won't Tell a Lie, brought me to my dancing feet, rocking out with fury. Forgiven's humble plea brought me to my own self awareness. Staying with me & Loving you. . Always reminded me of that first chance at love. "I'm a MAN" of course brought me to the rock of the 70's, (great cover!greater LIVE!) and Make it Better made me miss Lennon/McCartney, and was thankful that LLB was influenced by them. When I reached "You Can't See the Light" I surrendered into tears, admitting my own times of dispair and the beauty of that acceptance. What a beautiful embrace of recognizing how valueable friends, faith and our own human spirit is.
I too hate Walmart and wish the decision to award these two bonus tracks were in line with LLB usually does in benefiting Literacy organizations, Big Brothers/Big Sisters or some other worthy cause. I did get my 3rd and 4th cd there because of the bonus tracks and have wanted everyone I know to hear GUERO in the Barrio which is great fun.
Don't you just love that each cd having varying differences from the last? LLB is not predictable but are changing and growing and staying true to what they want to sing about. Hopefully the public is aware enough to appreciate this gift of great talent.
  Forgiven Excellent CD August 13, 2008 Every song is a good one. The first seven songs are amazing. The last song, Guero In The Bario, is fast becoming a favorite of concert goers.
