This came out on the eve of St. Paddy's Day celebration in the US. I thought it would be a good time to start explore a bit of their family history in the process. And believe you me, there are a lot of interesting stories in their history prior to their emmigration to the country of Ben Ibarra Sr.'s birth (do you still have to ask where?). The only thing I'm not sure at this point is if I could put down paper the irrepressible Irish accent. Bits and pieces of their family history will be revealed in the upcoming West Side compilations.
