The
majority of photos below were taken by Ernest Hernandez
Sr., who was the father of our drummer. Mr. Hernandez used to
take most of our equipment to
our gigs in his truck. This was at a time before we were old enough to drive. He would
always take a camera and shoot photos. He continued
this practice whenever he went to our gigs and shows in later
years. Thanks to him, we are one of the best photo documented
East L.A. bands of the 1960s.
