22nd July 2014 at the Clapham Grand, London SW11.
Country: United States. Style: Rock Music / Latin styles.
Lineup: David Hidalgo (v/g/accordion), Cesar Rosas (v/g), Louie Perez (g/jarana jarocha/d), Steve Berlin (tenor sax/baritone sax/keyboards), Conrad Lozano (bass g), Enrique "Bugs" Gonzalez (d).
Los Lobos started out in the 1970s in Los Angeles playing a mix of Rock’n’Roll and traditional Mexican music (corridos, rancheras, son jarocho, norteños). They are all second or third generation Mexican-Americans (apart from Mexican born Cesar Rosas and Anglo Steve Berlin - who joined the original high schoolmates from the Blasters in the 1980s). The lineup has been remarkably consistent, with only the drummers/percussionists changing. The band have veered backwards and forwards between Rock and Latin music over the years. Mostly placing themselves closer to the former, but including in the mix some Cumbia, Salsa or Cha Cha sung in Spanish.
In this photo: Perez plays a Fender Telecaster.

22nd July 2014 at the Clapham Grand, London SW11.
Country: Britain. Style: Country Music.
Lineup: Michael Weston King (v/g), Lou Dalgleish (v/tambourine), Alan Cook (pedal steel g/mandolin), Kevin Foster (b).
Michael Weston King has been a long time presence on the British Americana scene, initially with the Good Sons and then solo. This is a relatively recent collaboration with his wife Lou Dalgleish. They perform both as a duo and with a band. For this gig, supporting Los Lobos, it was a slimmed down version of the band (minus the electric guitarist, keyboardist and drummer). In the past I’ve taken photos of Weston King performing solo and Kevin Foster with Hank Wangford (to view click on the tag of their names).

Battersea Park, Wandsworth South London.
Battersea Park is a 200 acre (0.83 km²) green space in Battersea, London, England. It is situated on the south bank of the River Thames opposite Chelsea. It was opened in 1858.
The park occupies a mix of marshland reclaimed from the Thames, and land formerly used for market gardens serving the growing London population.
Battersea fields as it was once known was once a popular spot for duelling. On March 21, 1829, the Duke of Wellington and the Earl of Winchilsea met on Battersea fields to settle a matter of honour. When it came time to fire, the Duke deliberately aimed wide and Winchilsea fired into the air. Winchilsea later wrote the Duke a groveling apology.
Original designs for the park were laid out by Sir James Pennethorne between 1846 and 1864, although the park as opened in 1858 varied somewhat from Pennethorne's vision.
Battersea Park hosted the first exhibition of football played under the rules of the recently formed Football Association on 9 January 1864. The members of the opposing teams were chosen by the President of the FA (A. Pember) and the Secretary (E.C. Morley) and included many well-known footballers of the day.
The former site of the fair was levelled and became a site for travelling fairs and exhibitions, and is currently the site of Battersea Evolution, formerly known as the Battersea Park Events Arena.
The bandstand in Battersea Park

The park is home to a small children's zoo, a boating lake, a bandstand, and several all-weather outdoor sporting facilities including tennis courts, a running track and football pitches.
The park is also the site of the London Peace Pagoda, erected amidst some controversy in 1985, during Ken Livingstone's tenure as leader of the now abolished Greater London Council. Also in 1985, a replica of the bronze statue of a dog that was the focal point of the historic vivisection-related Brown Dog affair was erected in this park.
Over the course of 2002-4, the park underwent an £11m refurbishment funded in part by the Heritage Lottery Fund, and was re-opened on 4 June 2004 by Prince Phillip.
