Hello Micsandy287...
I used to know those guys (Cisco and Boston aka Norm and Ron) back in the 70's. Mostly Ron. They had quite a following - and we were traveling in similar circles. Ron used to come into the Music Shoppe in San Mateo California (my birthplace - and home up to 1980). They were fun to watch on stage and great music along with great personalities. Lost touch long ago. It was right around that time that I first met Gordon; around 1977-78. We spent a few hours in the company of some (then) San Francisco radio deejays. In those days I was quite active in the S.F. Recording scene, and played on many many sessions back in the day.
To save your Google search - San Mateo is a peninsula city, about 20 miles south of San Francisco. Actually - another old acquaintance (and great Canadian, Neil Young) lives in San Mateo County...in the trees

between Woodside and the coastline. Used to be called Broken Arrow Ranch...not sure about now. His wife Peggy and I graduated from the same high school - one year apart. Run into Neil from time to time. Good dude! Great father ! (sorry for the name dropping - but I really do not mind if you do, if it makes for an interesting read).
Well - my last post was when I was a mere 56 year old man. I am now 58. Sorry, I will visit more often; just as soon as I find a few more names to drop on ya'll!
I hope all are well and healthy. I enjoy your posts - often!
