I don’t know how many of you remember three guys who went out for success but unfortunately did not make it to the top. They were Dino Martin, the son of Dean Martin, Desi Arnaz, Jr. the son of Lucy and Desi Arnaz, Sr. and their friend Billy Hinshe. At least the guys did not hide behind the popularity of their parents but tried to become a sensation on their own. They played and sang between 1964 and 1969.
It was unfortunate that in 1987 Dean Paul Martin, Jr. died in a crash during a military training flight. Desi Arnaz, Jr. is now 66 years old and an American actor and musician, and Billy Hinsche is 68. Time has passed but at least these guys did try to give their dreams wings.
“Not the Lovin’ Kind” was one of the songs they recorded in the late 1960s. In the video, they all look so very young.
Who remembers them?

Sorry I haven't heard of them. I have just listened to their song. They're good singers comparable to the Herman's Hermits.
