“In Mexico, people say that if someone were to die singing rock ‘n’ roll, it would be Alex Lora.

Lora, considered the godfather of Mexican rock, is the front man of El Tri, Mexico’s top blues and rock band. Since the late 1960s, the group has been playing hard-edged, riff-filled music and soulful rock ballads.

Lora is the first to admit that his raspy, burnt voice is far from being Mexico’s best. Ah, but the band, he says, what sweet music they make!”*

“Hanging out with El Tri’s Alex Lora, the godfather of Rock en Espanol, you get to see what they call the “invisible America,” those 12 million workers legal and illegal, who don’t really get counted, and in manyCimg0692 cases, are literally unseen, even when they are present.

Kitchen staffs, bus boys, janitors, the workers who don’t introduce themselves when they come to your table.

But last Friday, the night before his big show at the Santa Clara Fairgrounds, I was beginning to worry that maybe he was losing his stuff.”

El Tri true legends (not just in their own minds, either!)

“Mexico City’s El Tri and its leader, Alex Lora, are the epitome of living legends. Lora is himself, a virtual encyclopedia of rock en Español history. His musical career began in the late sixties, with his first group, Three Souls in My Mind, played rock and roll and sang all of its songs in English. However, by the time the group was to record its third album, Lora decided to start singing in Spanish.

Lora, who recently spoke to La Prensa San Diego from Mexico, explained the reason for the change.

“[The decision to sing in Spanish] stemmed from the necessity to truly communicate with my audience,” Lora said recently from his home in Mexico City. I wanted people to understand me, to sing with me time and time again,” he added.”

The band comes through the Rialto Tuesday to promote the release, Lora’s usual blend of contemporary topics put to guitar-heavy blues rock”
