Kumpletuhin ko muna post ko... Dahil taym na daw sabi nung bantay kahapon. :-D
I hear a lot of kids nowadays bitching that they are pure rockers and stuff like that, pero hindi kilala mga legendary rock gods ng pinas. mas kilala pa nila yung mga rock legends from abroad kahit hindi pa nila nadidinig yung mga tugtugan nila. I admit, never ko pang nadinig si steve vai, yngwie malmsteen, atbpng mga malulupet gaw gumitara. But one listen to Juan Dela Cruz or either one of those people (Pepe, Mike Hanopol and Wally Gonzalez) playing their piece is like there's nothing else to compare. Di ba? Tama ba sinabi ko?

nakasabay ko si Pepe Smith sa elevator sa ofc namin a couple of months ago. He was wearing his usual garb(tight jeans, leather jacket), and was tinkering with his cell(but i think he was listening to some music). Cool na cool.
Ang nakakatawa lang eh sa sobrang pagkalikot nya at pakikinig nya sa cellphone nya eh muntik syang lumapas dun sa floor na bababaan nya. "Ay anung floor na ba, muntik na ko lumampas" was what he said (or at least somthing like that)
Natawa tuloy yung nag o operate ng elevator. Ako rin napa smile at binati ko sya ng "Idol!" Syempre ang kanyang reply: "Rock en Roll!"

nakwento ko na to dati eh. nung una kong makita si Pepe Smith. sa hobby shop tumitingin siya ng airplane models. ako dun sa mga toy soldiers. 6 or 7 palang ako nun tsaka di ko pa siya kilala nun as the legend i know today. pero nakakatuwa naman sight yun. i was like 3 feet tall standing next to a giant.

Ako, I live the street next to Pepe's. Pero di ko na sya nakikita. Sabi nung kapatid nyang si Raymond (w/c is then wearing a crapped rubber tire and a side mirror), nasa Baguio daw. Bahay pa lang nyan RAkenrol na. Pero mas lalo yung kapatid, umiinom ng tubig sa kanal! hahaha..
Pepe is a God. But I wonder how dumb the public is to think of him as adik (as what the people in our place think of him). He must be credited as Pinoy rock icon. Dumb is a mowhawk-ed, skinny jean wearing, typecast fan who claims himself as a rocker kung hindi nya kilala si Pepe. :-D

I have many anecdotes about tatay Pepe, from years past to his most recent JB Musikhero, Red Horse, Pulp, and other stints. One thing that stands out is that he "stands out".
We have partnered him with many of today's supposed biggest bands and stars. But when Pepe is around, it's seems as if they all revolve around him and being magnetize by his aura. Being legend is being just that, not limited on skills alone or how many music videos or billboards you have. It is being charismatic to most people who, on their daily routine, do not even listen to your music. But when they cross paths with you, they would feel that you are someone special. I felt that when I met Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, and Van Halen. Rarely did and do I feel that when I meet our very own musicians. But I do feel that when tatay Pepe is around... :-)

Umatend ako ng kasal ng tropa, ninong nila si Pepe Smith..ü Picture picture syempre. Tisoy pala sa personal?! Impression? Mabait. Pakuha kami ng picture okay lang sa kanya, tapos later on na OP pa ng konti kasi mga 'kids' and yung iba naming kasama di alam na s'ya SI PEPE SMITH. (yung mga babae..). And nagpapatawa pa "Aha, kasama pa ba ako dito? ehe" Parang ganun..
..anyway, ang sabi sa akin nung tropa ko na kinasal, tropa sya nung stepdad n'ya, and i hindi ko ma verify 'to pero healthy living daw talaga si Pepe Smith (puro cereal 'yata?), and sinasadya daw n'ya mag pa payat.. dahil pag tumaba na s'ya ng konti nagrereduce daw, (i think) to keep that 'adik look'..
..and yung medyo nakakatawa, pag umaga.. darating daw may dalang pan, butter tsaka juice (or gatas? di ko na matandaan), kakatok sa pinto "Breakfast tayo.." kakain, makikipag kwentuhan tropa n'yang stepdad ng tropa, tapos aalis na.. dala ulti yung breat butter tsaka inumin..
..well sabi lang sakin 'yun. Ang encounter ko lang sa kanya 'yung sa reception na pinuntahan namin. Andun din di Joey Ayala, (Conspiracy bar yata 'yun)..
Kumpletuhin ko muna post ko... Dahil taym na daw sabi nung bantay kahapon. :-D

Original Pilipino Music, now more commonly termed Original Pinoy Music, originally referred only to Filipino pop songs.

Original Pilipino Music, now more commonly termed Original Pinoy Music, originally referred only to Filipino pop songs.
Nung panahon na iyun, hindi pa naman OPM ang tawag noon sa mga orig na compositions ng mga pinoy artist. Ang uso kasi nung early 70s ay puro adaptation lang(kinukuha yung melody ng mga sikat na imported songs & pinapalitan ng tagalog lyrics). Yun ang ibig kong sabihin, nung panahon na iyon naglabas si Pepe ng compositions. At nagsunuran na mga bandang pinoy kaya nauso ang Manila Sound noon, tulad ng mga band na Hotdog, Cinderella, etc.. nung 80s na lang naman lumabas ang tawag na OPM. Ibig kong sabihin dahil sa kanta ng Juan Dela Cruz Band, nagsunuran na ang lahat pati ang mga pop.

OT
pareho lang nating kinuha sa wikipedia.
so i guess kun susundin lang natin yun Wikipedia, hindi pa OPM tawag noon sa gawa ni Pepe. ang ibig mo sabihin doesn't count, I'll have to take your statement for what it is and as it is and not what you might have thought it was or meant it to be.
parang term or research paper yan eh, hindi mo pwedeng baguhing ang nilalaman ng resources.

Wala akong kinukuha sa Wikipedia.. ayon lang yan sa experience at alam ko.. Ibig ko lang naman sabihin, si Pepe nagsimula ng pagko-compose o unang naglabas ng mga orig pinoy songs nung panahon na yun.. mga 1973 or 74 yun. Uso lang kasi noon puro adaptation at cover songs lang mga artist noon. At dahil doon, nagsunuran o naggayahan na ibang bands, singers o artists sa paggawa ng mga original compositions. dun na nga nag-umpisa.. yun lang nman ang ibig kong sabihin.. Kaya ko nasabi na doon nagsimula ang OPM, dahil pati yung mga pop, nagcompose na rin ng mga original..

Ang una una kong alaala kay Pepe ay noong nag-front act sila sa Zombies sa Araneta noong dekada-'60. Drummer siya ng Downbeats yata ang banda niya noon. Covers pa sila noon. Satisfaction ng Stones ang unang kanta. Madilim ang entablado. Nag-intro ang lead at pagpasok na ng lahat ng instrumento suminding nagliliyab yung cymbals ni Pepe. Iyon lang ang liwanag hanggang pumasok na yung vocals. Sa last song naman, yung bagang typical ending ng rock song na magro-rolling yung drummer at pagdating sa huling bagsak ng nota, dinampot ni Pepe yung snare drum at binalibag sa stage. Nag-alisan at nag-impake ang banda habang gumugulong yung drum sa stage. Walang nakapalakpak. Natapos na lang nang ganoon ang set nila. Sa madali't sabi, napatunganga lahat. Shocking kahit sa panahon ngayon lalo na noon. Kakaiba siya. Noon namang dekada-'70 sa Cultural Center of the Philippines, mayroong produksyong "Mahal Rock Opera." Star studded ang line-up. Ang papel ni Pepe ay parang Jack-in-the-box na lalabas sa isang malaking kahon. Mayroong studio version na may karapatdapat na titik na isinulat ng libretista ang kanta ni Pepe. Pero noong live na sa CCP iba na ang lumalabas sa bibig ni Pepe. Tugma pa rin naman sa music. Improvisation. Ganoon kagaling si Pepe noon. Sa Araneta ulit at dekada-80 naman. Christmas on the Rocks ang pangalan ng konsyerto. Pino-promote ng Juan de la Cruz yung bago nilang album na "Kahit Na Anong Mangyari." Mayroong heckler na sumisigaw ng "Pepeng Bungo..." Lulunurin ito ng banda ng tugtog. Pagkatapos ng kanta at palakpakan heto na naman si Heckler:"Pepeng Bungo..." Napika na si Pepe at lumapit sa mikropono at nagsabi ng pinakamalutong na pagbati na narinig sa isang rock concert: "Kinang ina mo ang ingay mo ha!" Hagalpakan ang lahat. Pause... Palakpakan tapos. Tamimi na si.....
