"Reva's House" turns up on Kiko, the album Los Lobos put out in 1992, and it's a small, dreamlike thing, a song that seems to drift in from another room. David Hidalgo wrote it, and he gives it a tender, homespun melody that the band handles as gently as an heirloom.
Tchad Blake engineered and mixed it, with John Paterno assisting on the sessions and Dan Bosworth on the mix, and the sound has a warm, slightly warped glow, like a snapshot left too long in the sun.
