Signed by Lalo Guerrero on the half-title and by Sherilyn Meece Mentes on the title page. Memoirs of guitarist, singer, and activist Lalo Guerrero (1916-2005), who has been called "the father of Chicano music" and "the original Chicano hepcat". This autobiography "takes readers on a musical rollercoaster, from his earliest enjoyment of Latino and black sounds in Tucson to his burgeoning career in Los Angeles singing with Los Carlistas, the quartet with which he began his recording career in 1938. During the fifties and sixties his music dominated the Latin American charts in both North and South America, and his song 'Canción Mexicana' has become the unofficial anthem of Mexico." Octavo: xii, 216 p. with textual photographs. Original mustard paper-covered boards, with black titles. Light dust spotting to the top edge, with just a hint of wear to the dust jacket; else very good or better. Very good / Very good.
