The Resume

    (June 29, 1951-November 20, 2021)
    Born in Manila, Philippines
    Member of Dino, Desi, and Billy (1964-69; singles included ‘I’m a Fool’ and ‘Not the Lovin’ Kind’)
    Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the UCLA Motion Pictures & Television division

Why he might be annoying:

    Surprisingly, when he first met Dean Paul Martin, he had no idea the guy was Dino Jr.!
    He was divorced twice, but there is confusion online as to when the second was.
    Who remembers Automan (which starred one of his bandmates)? He was one of the co-composers of the theme.
    In the new millennium, you might have trouble catching him without some kind of a panama.

Why he might not be annoying:

    While he came by his talent honestly, he was the only member of ‘D, D, & B’ not to be an official second-generation artist.
    Though he was a touring musician with the Beach Boys (and eventual brother-in-law to Carl Wilson), he opted to continue with his education rather than become a member proper.
    He would still be a backing vocalist, on recordings for – among others – Elton John.
    On his ‘official’ website, among other things, is a collection of home movies about his formative years — including the start of the Korean War.
