I never ever want to forget these times. That's how great they were here in San Anto. El Patio Andaluz, La Salle sock hops and so many other places. It makes me teary eyed when I hear this music. I miss it so.
When We would Practice These Songs after school, Thee Music Teacher Mrs Kaye Would Have us play Each Note Beat Just Like thee records, RIP Mrs Kaye, She was a Friend, Mentor, Teacher That went beyond Gave so Much Of her time To Teach This Boy, Even when other teachers wrote me off, So I Honour This Great Lady Mrs Sarah Kaye, Ernie Pyle JR, Music teacher, Your Long Hours & efforts Teaching me to play Many Instruments Were Not In vain.
Passing it on To My Grandkids & beyond, Telling them Grandma & I would dance to these GREAT Songs, Thee Timing & persi'on of thee Thee Horns, Drum Beat, & String'd Instruments, My JR High Music Teacher Mrs KAYE, Mentor Spent Hours after school Teaching me How to play many Instruments, Even after Graduating HS MRS Kaye Lent me Instruments to play at Giggs, Mrs Kaye Has pasted on Now, RIP, But her Teaching Skills & time she devoted to Me a Young Boy, Remain Now Im passing it On to My grandkids.
I remember dancing to this song...oops there goes my age I was young very young 15 yrs old. To go back in time and not make the same mistakes in life...would be wonderful.....I am going back to San Antonio, Texas next month I wish there were clubs that played that kind of music......
yeah all good things must come to an end but this group had some heavy songs recorded and even thou time has past they kept thier music and great sound alive we just need some kids to pick up and continue.
i remember dimas & I worked laying house carpet toghter.he would sing his rollas all day long.takl about live& in color.man that was something to witness
Great photos and memories. I was introduced to the Tejano stuff these guys did in the 70's but had no idea they also did all this other stuff. You're to be commended for documenting this awesome band. Gracias!
T.Perez or "Perra" also began singing about this time. Did have the mid range tenor like
Escalante. But also quit after a few years. I tried out with Tony Rivas, The Balderama Band, but just didn't pursue it further. One has to hang in there if you want to make it in the business. Like to hear form jpm he knows quite a bit on this business of music.
16track boards to the 24. I got to see the last one I was in and was I impressed. Big mother. I say one of your players swing his guitar behind his back and play. I once saw
Mario Morin do this one night at a practice session. Ignacio was another good guitar player but quit after a few years. Could wa-wa his way down on the board pretty good. Good fret man. Use to call him "Innie"
I played with Dino (Dimas)& Deltones 1964,I recorded the songs "Georgia" and "I Got a Woman" at Epstein's Recording studio same year..I played in the band for about 6 months before moving on with Litle Henry & Laveers..
I've been trying to locate those songs/recording and also a recording I did with George Rivas, Manny Studios 1970's "Eres Tu"...if anyone has any info,,post it hear...thanx...
Gonna miss you Dimas. I will never forget the compliment you gave me after we performed your song at the Majestic thank you. Michael H. from the Moonlites.
Gonna miss ya karnal, Can still can see you singing at HEB when you used to give me a personal concert. Even when you shopped at Penners you looked sharp. Saw you later after you left and you were back on stage, brother, you never looked happier. You Truly Succeeded.
