This here is an old pic of me, I can tell because my eyebrows were thinner but besides that everything else looks pretty much the same today.
The photographer was my friend Pepe. A great man from Cuba that I actually met a work at the first club I worked at, Starz in Gardena CA. He had a photo studio and I spent many hours there taking pictures, even learning to develop them, like this one - I developed it myself in his darkroom.
We shared many lunches at a Cuban restaurant, where I always ordered black beans, rice and plantains. I enjoyed many good talks about life with him. I called Pepe "grandpa" because that's what he became to me.
