Ry Cooder - Onda Callejera

Ry Cooder - Onda Callejera, from Chávez Ravine.
Chávez Ravine: A Record by Ry Cooder is a concept album and historical album by Ry Cooder which tells the story of Chávez Ravine, a Mexican-American community demolished in the 1950s in order to build public housing. The housing was never built. Ultimately the Brooklyn Dodgers built a stadium on the site as part of their move to Los Angeles. Chávez Ravine received a Grammy nomination for "Best Contemporary Folk Album" in 2006.

I lived twenty nine years in the community Echo Park; Chavez Ravine is the neighborhooding community, and I feel the empathy for lost terroritory due to government funding environmental community plans. The trees, the dirt roads (well not so much more), the overall, and most important mentionable aspect, the environment. :-(9
