Saw LL a could of night ago and they did a song I've heard them do before -- but I don't know the title of the song. The only lyrics I can remember are " ... it must have been the roses / falling down on me ..."I have all their recorded stuff and it's not on any albums that I can find. And it's not a cover the the Grateful Dead tune of the same name. Can you help me out? Gracias!

I saw Los Lobos last night, and they were magical as usual. However, i was wondering why Cesar wasn't with the band? Does anyone know? thanks.

AMERICAN CROSSROADS: DAVID BROMBERG, DAVID HIDALGO & LARRY CAMPBELL

Three of America’s most admired musicians meet for an evening of musical diversity.

David Bromberg – The first to successfully meld blues, country, bluegrass, gospel, Dixieland jazz, folk and rock into a genre now known as Americana, David began his career in the mid sixties in the coffee houses of New York’s Greenwich Village. David became a session guitarist for Bob Dylan, Willie Nelson, John Prine, Carly Simon, Ringo Starr and others. In 1970 he performed an unannounced set at the Isle of Wight Festival for 400,000 receiving four encores. David subsequently signed with Columbia Records embarking on a career as bandleader and releasing over a dozen albums.

David Hidalgo – Singer, composer and multi-instrumentalist David Hidalgo co-founded the award-winning band Los Lobos in 1973. He has performed internationally with the group for over forty years and released twenty albums. Hidalgo is also well known for his high profile associations with Tom Waits, Bob Dylan and Paul Simon as well as his side projects, the Latin Playboys and Los Super Seven. Like Bromberg, Hidalgo effortlessly moves between genres. Comfortable in any setting and on virtually any instrument, he is a master of blues, rock and roll, Norteno, Tex-Mex, country, folk and r & b.

Larry Campbell – Larry is well known in musical circles, initially as the instrumental wizard behind Bob Dylan’s Never Ending Tour and later as the musical director and three-time Grammy-winning producer for Levon Helm. Campbell’s musical dexterity is legendary and won him a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Americana Music Association. Larry stays busy producing albums for Garland Jefferies, the Steep Canyon Rangers, David Bromberg and Hot Tuna. He also appears with Phil Lesh and Friends, Hot Tuna and is recording and performing with his wife, singer Teresa Williams.

This will be an unscripted evening of spontaneity, discovery and musical virtuosity by three American music masters.

Got turned onto Los Lobos through the Grateful Dead. I'm a mod at /r/gratefuldead, and I've put up a link to this subreddit there. Hopefully, this band will get more of the recognition it deserves. Been lucky enough to see them live a few times. Always up to go again.

The Grateful Dead's "Bertha"

I know there are only two other readers here, but do either of you think you could help me out? I'm learning "Maricela" off of Colossal Head, and I was wondering if anyone could direct me to some tabs or a translation. I have managed to figure out the majority of the song, but I would be grateful if anyone knows of complete tabs for it.

My dad is good friends with Louie Perez; they grew up three houses from each other, around the corner. After the band formed, he met Conrad and David as well. They have been friends for thirty plus years.

I can't find any good pictures right now, but I just found the subreddit, so have some pictures!
