Happy Birthday Ernie!

Of all the great bands that came out the the tri-counties, Ernie and the Emperors stood head and shoulders above most of them, and at the forefront of that band stood Ernie Joseph (Orosco), a brilliant guitarist, singer, songwriter, and showman.

But what's probably the best thing is that Ernie was--and still is--a wonderful human being who has always lived according to his high personal ethics. He has always shared his spotlight happily and without reservation and has never hesitated to lend a helping hand to his fellow musicians in the studio, on the stage, and personally. I am honored to count him among my closest friends.

Happy Birthday dear friend!
