Forgiven

This CD is more like the first LLB record, which is the best effort by the Garza brothers. "Sacred" had a depressing feeling to it and wasnt as good at what LLB do best. And what they do best is soulful blues with harmony. "Forgiven" is a well written and performed album. It does have a more bluesy feel then the last record. My only real complaint is that most of the songs are under 4 minutes.

These guys are truly some of the most gifted musicians on the planet.

BUY FORGIVEN!!!!

This is a pretty weak effort by LLB, what happened? I don't really hear anything on here to get too excited about. The songs are fairly short, as well as the album as a whole. It's just not very rockin', what did Sony do to them? Let's face it, Sacred was only half as good as the self-titled album, and Forgiven is only half as good as Sacred. What do you have left, an effort only one-quarter as good as their debut. I'll give it 2 stars for the only songs I actually like on here, I'm A Man (nice cover), and Cruel (sounds like it easily could have been on Sacred). Although, I'm not thoroughly thrilled by this release, they are still one of THE best live bands out there! Be sure to check them out, hopefully they'll bust out a half-hour Onda on you!

It seems like everytime is the charm with Los Lonely Boys,they again do not disappoint and rather rise yet another notch towards musical greatness. This album sounds like band of gypsies meets SRV live at el mocambo.. killer guitar throughout , much more jammin and heavy songs on this album than their first two. A definite evolution and awesome in my opinion.

I love it!!! It's quite different than albums Los Lonely Boys and Sacred. A lot of fantastic blues tunes. Guitarist Henry is becoming a legend in his own right!!! My favorite songs are Loving You Always and I'm A Man. I can hear Hendrix influence. Overall wonderful job by the boys. This album came straight from their heart and will be well received I'm sure.

I just heard this new release by Los Lonely Boys and I love it! It has a live sound to it- feels like you are right there at one of their concerts. The lead vocals and harmonies work great on all the songs. The signature guitar riffs are there- for all you fans of lead guitarist Henry! This is a CD that is very enjoyable- the kind you will listen to while driving in your car or BBQing in your backyard. It reminds me of their first CD, but with a more mature and fuller sound. Favorites: Forgiven, Heart Won't Tell A Lie, I'm a Man, Superman.
