The visit with was good . Great to see him again . He paled some music on his original
Style tenor for me . Haven't seen one like that in a long Time . I played at two churches in Arima . I borrowed a bore C tenor . The song from this pan was unbelievable. Hope you are doing well on your book . Blessings , Winston .
Hi Vernon I will be going to Trinidad tomorrow July 16 for 3 weeks . I will be going to visit Bobby . If you will be there at that time please let me know so we can hook up and reminisce about growing up in San 'do . Blessings Winston
Based on your recollections you seem to have a lot of knowledge of the San Fernando steelband scene, even earlier than my memories, and I hope you share your stories with us.
I remember a classmate Lincoln Seebaran at Naps in the late fifties.
Hey Vernon forgot to mention Ronald Narine was in my class ,we used to call him zogs because one time he had a haircut with a lot of zogs . I remember he used to live behind Battoos , somewhere there . He was in my class . Please give him my contacts if he is still around . I will be going to Trinidad next week . It will be nice to see him . Courtney Gomes mom Sumi was my family 's friend . Looking back on my youth in spite of all I have achieved . Those were some of the best times of my life .
Hi Vernon ., thanks for the reply , I know most of the guys you mentioned , Steve Dennis , Joan and Diane Lalsingh . Courtney and his sister Linda Gomes who by the way was a girlfriend of mine at one time in my youth . Georgy Donawa was one of the tenor men with me in Antilleans .
