Los Lonely Boys performing “My Way” (acoustic) on VH1.
LOS LONELY BOYS, Forgiven (Epic)
Official Site | MySpace | Samples (Amazon)
San Angelo’s own giants of Texican rock n’ roll, the Los Lonely Boys, release their third album consistent with the big sound that has helped make them famous. The Steve Jordan (John Mayer) produced record appears to bring more of all there is to love about the brotherly trio, great tunes begging to be turned up to 11. Right before the Independence Day holiday, this is a sure complement to an already hot summer. File under: Rock / Blues / Pop

Twenty-two songs worth of John Mayer at his best… live. Including a sweet cover of Tom Petty’s “Free-fallin'”.
