June 1991. By August 1991, he recorded 5 songs on his fathers tape due to so
many requests. By Nov. 1991 Lupe's tape had to be updated because he had
advanced so fast his tape of 3 months was outdated. Lupe has continued to
advance at such a fast rate and has added a keyboard, guitar, accordion, and
most recently the fiddle to his list of instruments that he playes.

In 1987, at the age of 5 yrs. David asked Lupe to sing with him. Lupe stepped
right up, took the mike from his dad and sang "Lucille". Then he continued to add
songs to his list of accomplishments. Since he has taken up the saxaphone in
