The Youthful Days in Los Rondels: Laredo’s Original Tejano Recording Artists

 

The story Los Rondels: Laredo’s Original Tejano Recording Artists written by Humberto Gonzalez is a musical anecdote that explicitly describes the success of the band The Rondels. Having been a member of the band, the author explains the whole journey, and the process with which the band made it to the top of the charts regularly and brought about a change in the industry.

This particular segment speaks of the time when the band had to perform and play on two separate venues and places simultaneously. The Rondels grew in popularity and gained the attention of masses within the state of Texas in the earliest of days, and were being called to perform on a number of venues and places during that time. Humberto Gonzalez, the author, pens the specific incident when the members were stuck in between two ways, and had to perform at roughly the same time on two different locations. This incident, as the author noted, depicts their naiveness, and their quest for adventure and fun during the days. As the story explains, the members were admitted into a college via a scholarship, and their beloved Band Director Dr. Bellamah had simply rejected their request of letting them perform at another venue, citing the dangerous consequence of the members losing their scholarships. The youngsters, however, devised a scheme that would allow them to do both. The band members sneaked out right as they finished the halftime show and went running to a waiting van to drive them to San Antonio, where they had already booked a flight to their gig’s venue, and landed to perform there. The author’s excitement is visible in his words, as he depicts that this was the first time many of the band members ever boarded a plane. This tale of a bunch youngsters following their love and compassion for music inspires and enlightens readers with its exquisite storytelling, depiction of characters, and the delicacy in detailing, connecting the masses immediately. The book is also a great example for the youth on how to perfectly follow your dreams, make some bucks, and make a name for yourselves as well, guiding them to the right path to success, and encouraging them to believe in hard work and perseverance.
