If not, you can hear them Wednesday night on Canada Live (8 p.m.) with their usual Los Lobos blend of blues, rock, various Mexican and Tex-Mex styles.Apparently their next album is covers of songs associated with Walt Disney flicks -- could this really be true? I can hear them doing Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah. I think.The Wolves aside, also on this evening's programme, a concert by one-time Van the Man sideMan, James Hunter, this from last year's Edmonton Folk Fest. And to round out the evening from the same festival, music from Marty Stuart And The Fabulous Superlatives. What can I say, they're brilliant, amazing, incredible!

hamilton Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 They've already done a cover version of "I Wanna Be Like You" from "The Jungle Book", although I can't remember where it was released. It's pretty awesome, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
