A Best-Of featuring classic Tarantula songs, legendary film songs, and some musical surprises.

Some of these songs will surely make their way to the stage as well. Born in Mexico and raised as the son of a trapper in the wilderness of Alaska, Tito Larriva began his career in Los Angeles. With the PLUGZ and later the CRUZADOS, he quickly gained momentum. After a Top 10 single and a cover on Billboard magazine, Larriva became part of the L.A. music and film scene of the 1980s. In the rehearsal room next door, the Red Hot Chili Peppers were taking their first steps. Emmylou Harris and Jeff Porcaro (the late TOTO drummer) were his neighbors. At the same time, he also began his acting career as a trained ballet dancer. After debuting as "Hammy" in the "Pee-wee Herman Show" (1981), he worked with Patrick Swayze (Roadhouse), Johnny Depp (Once Upon A Time In Mexico), Antonio Banderas (Desperados 2), as well as Mel Gibson and Milla Jovovich in Wim Wenders' "The Million Dollar Hotel," David Byrne (True Stories), Cheech Marin (Born In East LA), in the Oscar-winning short film "Session Man," and with R. Rodriguez (Grindhouse).
