THE ROAD
How did I get so interested with music???
Growing up in SM around the lowrider community, and may dad who was heavily into oldies - I grew up to them. Above are a few albums I vividly remember growing up to! East Side Story & Lost Soul Oldies were a series, these are just 1 of each of many of the whole compilations in the entire series. I took a liking to the Oldies that had tight harmony! I was too young to remember a lot of the East Side Story, only remembering some more well known oldies. When I was around 10 my dad brought home a collection of Lost Soul Oldies. I really loved all the songs with KILLER harmonies; I never just really find myself getting to into the music. This all changed when one day I was watching an infomercial, it happened to be advertising love songs from the 50's. I always pictured Doo Wop as crappy barbershop music. It wasn't long before I heard "Dream Lover" by Bobby Darin and "Teenager In Love" by Dion - I was HOOKED! This was MY sound!! One YouTube search led to another, and in no time - I was hooked on 50's Rock N' Roll and Rockabilly! That sparked my love of oldies, and I wanted to be cool and listen to them on their OG formats ... 45's and 78's.
