OK folks, here it is as promised, a compilation of music from the 70's to early 80's in callaboration with G Side Records and with some help from G Man himself whom I'd also like to send a big shout out to for asking me to a member of this site. Thanz alot G Man!
These are songs I listened to while I was growing up as a teen in Cali(thus the title), these are still some of my favorites today, some 30 plus years later. What can I say, they don't make them like they used to so I keep enjoying these til this day and will continue to do so para siempre. Around here in Tejas, coming across someone that listens to the same type of music(oldies) that I do is rare so I usually end up cruising solo and enjoying them all by myself....better that way, if ya know what I mean, nobody telling you to change the radio, etc...
OK folks, wash and wax up the "Ranfla", pick up your Ruca(this part is strongly recommended), and get ready to cruise and listen to what I think will be one of the best cruising CD's you will ever come across...or atleast I hope so.
Anyhow, in ending my little story, I'd like to Thank G Man for his help and everybody from Tomorrow's Velvet Dreamz and The Keeper of Lost Dreamz for all the wonderful work they do in helping to keep our "Dreamz" alive.
Hope everyone enjoys these rolas as much as I did and still do. It's hard for me to pick a favorite from all of these but if I had to choose it would be Track #7, a rare gem that seems to be forgotten(not by me) with time, it's a 1970 Duet by Marilyn McCoo & Billy Davis Jr. titled "You Don't Have To Be A Star", Ahhh, the memories...hopefully these songs will rekindle some of yours as well.
