Irving Flores, Jr.

Judi and I caught up with Irving Flores, Jr., the son of the bandleader I worked for in Tampico, Tamaulipas, Mexico 36 years ago. We also met his wonderful girlfriend Lillian Johnson. What an amazing experience! Irving is an amazing jazz pianist with an impressive resume (see www.irvingflores.com). He currently lives in San Diego. We played together and the music was on a high level. After we ate an excellent dinner cooked by Judi, we reached Irving Flores, Sr. at his home in Puerta Vallarta. After speaking in Spanish, he told me in English that he loved me, and I said the same to him.It's almost a dream-like experience to reconnect with a family after over 3 decades. Irving invited me to San Diego to make a record and do a concert. Who knows? I might take him up on it.
