Me, Ricky Loza, Tito Puente and Alfredo Mohica, Sr. Backstage at Carter Barron Amphitheater in 1991. What a thrill to open for Tito Puente and Poncho Sanchez—two Latin-Jazz titans. I wrote all the music especially for the show. I remember it started rainining cats and dogs by the time Tito went on—but he just kept playing!
