Kiko (album)

Kiko is the sixth album by the Mexican American rock group Los Lobos. With the exception of La Bamba's 2 million units sold, Kiko sold more units than any other album in their 46 year career of original songs. Roughly 450,000 units were sold worldwide.
A year after the album's release, Los Lobos performed a version of the song "Kiko and the Lavender Moon," as "Elmo and the Lavender Moon," on the PBS series Sesame Street.
