  • SUAVE!!!!

  • Thanks to my parents, this is part of the soundtrack of my childhood.

  • iM SO PROUD OF BEiN CHiCANA! <3

  • TRULY ONE OF THE GREAT SOUNDS OF E.L.A.I REMEMBER WHEN THEY PLAYED AT THE GOLDEN GATE THEATER IN E.L.A.

  • I ran across these guys surfing soul music and really liked their sound. I live on the east coast but a special place for this kind of music. We call the R&B sounds beach music cause it has been played on the Grand Strand @ Myrlte Beach since the 50s. R&B has never died & is alive and well from VA Beach to Jax FL but Myrtle Beach is the Mecca & Repository for "Beach Music." Sadly rock music is seeing some bad times now. Quit buying shitty music because that's the only way crap will stop.

  • pride to be mexican and american@!

  • Grew up in Montebello..and remember these guys from way back when..at times played at Cantwell Hi...man! good time to grow up..I would hang out with my bud that worked the small liquor store across the street, back then "Eastland Savings" on Whittier Blvd..wow..that was long ago and I left that place long time ago! But many a memory..

  • I prefer my uncle Charles Munoz voice to Willie G! My uncle had the range to make these songs really special! He replaced Little Willie G, as lead singer... remember?

  • This is Greatness!!!!!!!

  • Nice Billy Steward "doubling" moves.

  • Remember the hand ball courts La Puente Ca. 63- 66 dancing to this song.

  • There is my friend Romeo playing the trumpet, is true that he died? He was a very nice person.

  • I accompanied (Bass/vocals) Lil Willie G., both in San Jose and L.A., back in the mid 80's, when I was with a gospel band by the name of New Life. It's been over 20 years since I last saw him. Although I'm a young buck (44) in comparison to those who lived through the era when Thee Midniters were it, I grew up in Norwalk and recall my older bros. bumping their music. I've since recorded music in the Freestyle realm (Make Believe/NVS-1990s), with Lil Willie to thank for the inspiration.
