Bio / Background
A couple of years ago I was watching the Grammys and was impressed by a brief appearance of the Buena Vista Social Club. Next day I rented their video. A wave of nostalgia washed over me. "This is the way it used to sound" I said to myself.
In 1953 I was playing piano at the Happy Hour Bar in Key West. Havana was just a few miles away across the Gulf Stream and Cuban radio stations came in at night. After work I would wander down Duval Street to the Preview Lounge where my friend tended bar. Frank told wonderful stories about Puerto Rico. The weather was always warm, the girls were all beautiful, the beaches were great and every day was party time. In May we took a few days off to visit the Island. At Miami airport, we hitched a ride on a DC 3 with a load of live chickens. The "few days" turned into 17 years and I didn't leave Puerto Rico until 1970.
My first job here was playing piano & accordion wih the quintet at the Caribe Hilton.
