Lion Is Loose (1995)

About this title: Ochoa and his group have the quality without which all else is conversation: they play the classic son as if they'd just thought of it. Ochoa is a superb guitarist with the true richness of simplicity, and more yet he's a gorgeous singer with the delicately earthy voice that marks the great soneros of the past. This is a phemomenally beautiful recording -- soul food for the spirit. John Storm Roberts, Original Music, All Music Guide
