About This is the story (in pictures) of "The Rise and Fall of El Edwardo" (in 3 Acts.) The Rise / The Peak / The Decline. It's a tale full of ups and downs, joy and sadness, tears and laughter. You will never be the same after you hear the entire story.
This is the first known shot of El Edwardo as an adult stage performer. No one's really sure but it's believed this was taken at a Holiday Inn near Big Tuna, Texas. You can already see a star, superstar in the making. People around El Edwardo at that time said that they always felt he KNEW world fame was just around the corner (so much so that he'd never allow himself to be photographed with his back-up band. Even at the beginning). Did EL Edwardo know something the public was still years away from finding out? (let's read on) In the old days a typical El Edwardo show would be loaded "top heavy" with Buddy Holly, Elvis, Chuck Berry, Los Lobos, and Little Richard covers. Through out his entire career he'd ALWAYS close with "My Way" by old Blue Eyes. And El Edwardo sure did do it his way....stay tuned for more tomorrow......

Great portrait, it has a bleak desperation to it that makes it un-missable.

Oh, you said no one was sure where it was taken. It made me think you hadn't taken it. Well, in that case...good lighting? ^_^

BTW, forgot to mention (and this is a little known fact) that the Lapels on his suit jackets were modeled after the wings on the famous Concorde aircraft (no longer in service). I think they are just the coolest looking - the guy had his look ALL together....

Thanks Michael, Yeah, I KNOW i'm lucky - sometimes I pinch myself. El Edwardo had it all - the girls, the cars, the Limo's , The houses....AND, that VOICE WOW !! I'd cut off my little finger to sound like that. I got more coming so stay tuned. Take Care, Mark PS. I hear his Vinyl records are going for $1,000 each - that'd be great cause i gottem all....

Wow I remember him. Good ol El Edwardo. I can't believe you got to take his pictures. I have tried many times to do this. I cant wait to see your images of him.. you should contact vh1 about getting a behind the scenes special on him.

Ashley - always giving me a hard time. I took it dear (but this was back in my blackout / rodeo days in Texas...you're making me think back to bad times). Just flow with the story of El Edwardo - a new shot every night - like a TV series) It gets better......
