He was an intellectual and a drug guru in "La Condesa", in the late 60s in fact his moniker should be “The Timothy Leary of petatiux” instead of Allen Ginsberg, but he also looked like Allen Ginsberg, really! Just see that picture or the one I have in my profile and I have a lot of pictures of him and of Allen.
He met Timothy Leary in person and was a friend of many of the underground rock bands in the area. Again due to the ban we had he was known only locally but by many.
“de petatiux” is a local expression for something that is foreigner but you’re talking about the “Mexican Version”…so the expression "The Allen Ginsberg of petitux" means something like “The Mexican Version of Allen Ginsberg” when he was more into Tim.
Oh.
Cool. Your parents must be interesting people too. I wonder what they thought of all that.

My mom was a philospher and between some curious things she was a pen-pal of both Bertrand Russell and Erich Fromm. She was very conservative and hated that.
My dad was an industrial and didn't give a fuck about it.
I remember one time some friends of my brother got busted by the police and my dad came out, talked with the police and told them something like "do you job you bastards, go for the roots not for the leaves"... and the cops left!!

I am in your debt my friend. Next time I'm in Mexico, I want no mess ups. I get the southern accent really going when I try to speak spanish. For some reason, Mexicans tend to find it amusing.

This is a picture of Javier Bátiz with "El pájaro", as mentioned Javier was the boss and teacher of Carlos Santana and had Carlos Santana and Fito de la Parra as members of his band.
As you can see he is not a "doll"

This is me with Alex Lora, the one at the top of the bill of any rock festival in Latin America, a schoolmate in the sixties and a good buddy! We were talking a lot about the good old times!
The picture was taken by Tzonistac at the end of the second Bob Dylan show in Mexico City

LOL... they look similar
Check this poster about the movie El Señor 10,000 Moteles posted in the first message.
EL TRI and ALEX LORA are on top on both sides, El Tri is the band founded by Alex Lora and Charlie Hauptvoguel, and by far the most succesfull and authentic rock band not just in Mexico but Latin America and Spain; in this thread you'll find pictures of me with both Alex and Charlie

When Alex left the Bob Dylan's "post party" Tzoni wanted a picture with Alex, so I told Alex "hey Alex this is Tzonistac
(well... I used her real name) and ALex was very nice, he came back, said "hi Tzoni" and posed for this picture taken by me
