We have loved all the music you’ve been posting — including lots and lots of our favorites.

Carlos took the cake though. He is sacred here in SF. People don’t even brag about knowing him. If asked, “yeah we grew up together in the Mission” or “we used to hang together in the Mission”.

A very good young friend of ours played as a teenager with Carlos. Carlos invited Tito to go on the road with him. His mom said absolutely not until he finished high school. Recounting this years later, a rather sophisticated Mexican friend said “oh yeah, well what did he play?” “Timbales”. I answered. He never said another word.
