Hey Dino…who the heck is El Tri? The answer goes all the way back to 1968 and a rock band from Mexico City called Three Souls In My Mind. Pioneers of Mexican music, the band split in 1984 when bassist Alex Lora started the band El Tri, which has gone on to massive success in the world of Latin rock. In fact, Lora is widely regarded as the grandfather of Mexican rock and roll, and his band has released over twenty albums over the years. Ojo Por Ojo is their 15th album, and it came at a time when the band had become less prolific…this album was only their third since 1998. And, as happens to bands that have slowed down (such as The Rolling Stones), the songwriting tends to be not as sharp as it once was. And that does seem to be the case here, as far as musically (lyrically? I can’t tell ya. It’s all in Spanish, folks.) the band has a nice level of energy, almost making up for what they lack in originality.
Lora is the chief songwriter, and while a lot of the songs are based on his own personal experiences, he has always also had an open door policy with his fans. They send him ideas of things to write about, and he does just that. Pretty refreshing for a rock star. The rock they play on Ojo Por Ojo is pretty straight forward, with not much to indicate that they aren’t from Hollywood or New Jersey. Except for Lora’s singing. It’s all in Spanish, and he sounds as if he might have taken his vocal cues from Cheech Marin (or, given the timeline, vice-versa). But this band has had huge success over a whole lot of decades, and that includes having played some pretty big shows in the United States. So, while what I hear on Ojo Por Ojo may sound average, I’m not afraid to admit that this is a band that may require some further research. Perhaps they are the Mexican Stones or Black Crowes? I will keep you posted… [First added to this chart: 08/01/2025]

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
We work very hard to ensure our site is as fast (and FREE!) as possible, and we respect your privacy.
