At last week's City Council Meeting a follow up to my letter was made by presentation by several Palm Springs citizens who spoke in favor of my proposal. Unfortunately, I did not include my recommendation as to street. We believe the logical location would be the new street from Palm Canyon Drive to the Museum.

In particular, Trini has donated his time and talent to Palm Springs Youth Charities (aka Greater Palm Springs Celebrity Golf Classic) numerous times helping to raise thousands of dollars for charities that Palm Springs Youth Charities has supported.

INI N'S Trini Lopez He'll always belong to Palm Springs By Marilyn Mitchell For Desert Entertainer TRINI LOPEZ: Star #8, Dedicated May 21, 1993, 123 North Palm Canyon Drive Long time Palm Springs resident Trial Lopez got his start on the street corners of his home town of Dallas, Texas, playing a $12 guitar his father managed to buy for him. Bern Into a musical but poor family, Trial helped out by singing In clubs throughout the Southwest. At age 18, he was offered a three-year recording contract and somewhere along the way met and befriended Buddy Holly and his band "The Crickets." But fate stepped in when Holly's career was cut short by his death in a plane crash. The band, finding themselves without a leader, asked Trini to join them in Hollywood as their lead singer. A devastated Trini arrived in Hollywood only to learn that the boys in the band weren't ready to go back to a life out on the road and a determined Trini found a solo gig in Beverly Hills' "Ye LIMB Club which led to an even better gig at "P.J.'s," where he performed to a packed house for 18 months. Frank Sinatra's record producer caught Trinl's act, was impressed and brought him to Frank's attention, and Trini was signed to Frank Sinatra's Reprise label. His first album for Reprise was "Trini Lopez Live at P.J.'s,' which to this day is his biggest selling album. Trini has since recorded 63 albums, Including his latest, "Ramblln Men,' Sold over one hundred million albums world-wide, won many honors and awards, gold records, and performed in TV and movies. Trini recently completed a featured role in an Independent film shot right here In the desert called "Palm Springs High School," In which he performs one of his biggest hits "La Bamba." lust last November, Trfnl starred in a PBS special, "Trini Lopez Presents Latin Music Legends," taped at the Orpheum Theatre in L.A. It was produced by Bob Alexander, President of the P.S. Walk of Stars, and was written by my late husband, Gordon "Whitey" Mitchell. It's scheduled to air this June. Trini will appear at the Hilton Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City Sept. 13 - 18, as part of a U.S. tour. But Trini will always belong to Palm Springs where he plays golf and tennis and brightens the social and charity scene with his Immense talents. The Palm Springs Walk of Stars was founded in 1992 and honors individuals with a Golden Palm Star on the sidewalks of downtown Palm Springs. If you d like to nominate someone for a Star, contact the office at (760) 416-5811. For more information, visit www. palmspringswalkolstprs. com.

He remembers they had barely enough food for the family, the amount was always determined by his parent's ability to get whatever work they could. They worked and struggled together just to survive. They plowed fields together and his mother washed clothes in the neighborhood for extra income. You can't imagine how hard it was for the family. Trini has made lemonade from a life that began with nothing but lemons! When he was eleven years old, his father spanked him for hanging around with the wrong kind of kids. What a wise man he was to lead his talented son from a life of street gangs to a life of sophisticated graciousness. Trinidad Lopez Sr., felt so badly about the spanking he had given his son, he bought him a $12.00 guitar he really couldn't afford. Trini says "A spanking literally changed my life." Trini learned to play the guitar from his father, and then he played for money on the street corners. He eventually went on to form his own group. It was then that the world saw the beginnings of the singing, acting, and very talented Trini Lopez. Trim's first songs were Mexican sing -along. When Trini was 18 years old, King Records in Cincinnati, Ohio, heard that he had written and recorded a single in Dallas on a little label called Volk Records. The name of the song was "The Right to Rock". From the beginning, the record producer wanted Trini to change his name to anything but Lopez. Trini was and is proud of his heritage and was devasted by the situation. Trini refused and was heading out the door when the record producer by the situation. Trini refused and was heading out the door when the record producer stopped him and said "Okay, Okay, you can keep your name." The single made a little noise in Dallas, enough noise for King Records to be impressed with Trim's voice and style. King Records offered him a three year recording contract. They flew Trini from Dallas to Cincinnati to record for two weeks at a time. Unfortunately, the only songs they were giving Trini to record were old country songs they had in their catalog by country artists such as Cowboy Copus. Once in a while on some recording sessions, Trini would slip in some of his own compositions that were more up to date. The only song to hit the charts nationally on the King label for Trini was a song he covered by the Skyliners called "Since I Don't Have You.". The song hit the Top 10 nationwide, and Trini was elated to see his name in Cashbox and Billboard. The only other song on King Records Trini had that was a No. 1 hit in his hometown of Dallas was a song called "Don't Let Your Sweet Love Die". Trini befriended the famous recording artist Buddy Holly, a fellow Texan. Buddy asked if he would like to meet his record producer in Clovis, New Mexico. Trini was elated and packed his station wagon with his group and drove to Clovis with the hopes of recording. Buddy Hol record producer tamed his out to be prejudiced because of his heritage. He would not allow the use of Trim's real name on the record label. Trini's group agreed with the conspiracy against Trini's Latin name and they agreed not to allow Trini to sing on the record. The record was released as an instrumental under the name "The Big Beats". When Trini returned to Dallas, he disbanded the group and assembled a new band. While in Clovis, Trini befriended not only Buddy Holly but { also his band, The Crickets. As fate would have it, two months later, Buddy Holly was killed in a fatal plane crash along with Ritchie Valens and The Big Bopper. A couple of months after the plane crash, Trini received a phone call from The Crickets asking him to come to Hollywood to be their lead singer. Trini was ecstatic, and instead of flying he used the money sent by The Crickets to drive his station wagon to Los Angeles. All through the two and half day trip, Trini kept saying to himself Hollywood or bust, Hollywood or bust!! ! Trini arrived in H-O-L-L-Y-W-O-O-D. The agreement Trini had with The Crickets did not materialize because The Crickets were enjoying their royalties and record sales from Buddy Holly's past hit recordings and were in no hung to perform. The $200 Trini left Dallas with was gone. He had promised he would be sending money to his parents from his engagements in California. Out of desperation, Trini Lopez, the star was born. Trini got a job at the Ye Little Club in Beverly Hills. He was hired with no group, just Trini and his guitar. His engagement was to last only two weeks and ended up lasting a year. The first big break came at the popular night spot called PJ's in Hollywood. Here he was spotted by the world famous record producer, the late Don Costa, who then brought Trini to the attention of his longtime idol, the Great Frank Sinatra. Mr. Sinatra a fellow stylist immediately asked Don Costa to signed Trini to an exclusive eight year contract on Sinatra's Reprise Records. Reprise released his first album "Trini Lopez at PJ's" which became a No. 1 hit worldwide. Out of that album, a single "If I I -lad a Hammer" became a No. 1 hit in thirty eight countries.
