In Brief
*** Lalo Guerrero, “Vamos a Bailar Otra Vez!,” Break. Enlisting some of the most talented session musicians from the Los Angeles scene (Justo Almario, Ramon Flores and Joe Rotondi among many others), the Father of Chicano music offers a wacky platter of Hispanic American treats, ranging from big-band swing to traditional rancheras, humorous salsa and even a couple of boleros. It all jells thanks to Guerrero’s wholesome vocal delivery and rambunctious personality. He performs today at the San Fernando High School auditorium.
