Book Description

Often called "the father of Chicano music," Lalo Guerrero is an American original whose music has jubilantly reflected his people's culture for more than sixty years. Lalo's autobiography recalls the nightclubs where he was a headliner and the one-night stands he performed all over the Southwest in an often funny, sometimes sentimental story that traces his musical genius.
