Biography
Born in NYC, NY ( Spanish Harlem ) I was also raised & educated there.
my parents came from Puerto Rico and I became a New York Rican!
For 55 years I've been chasing a dream that I still haven't caught up with.
And I will continue to pursue it as long as I can play at a high level.
Like a Journey man professional fighter who stays in shape maintains his
skills and keeps hoping for that shot at the title some day is exactly how I feel. I give it my all 100% of the time but fear that one day I'll awake and my skills aren't there any longer. You see FATHER TIME CATCHES UP TO EVERYONE EVENTUALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Never the less I fight & struggle on until that unfortunate day arrives. For you young musicians be the best you can be as long as you can and hopefully you'll
achieve that dream. " NEVER GIVE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
