.In early 1958 two young men with a musical vision and talent who were also best friends being Ramon Salazar Jr. (14yrs.) and George Soto (15yrs.) together formed a Rock N Roll band and named said band The Playboys which later became The Broken Hearts. Their musical journey started in El Barrio de Newton Avenue en Seguin, Texas and took them to many parts of the United States and Mexico and finally to the Tejano Music Hall of Fame in El Paso, Texas and the Tejano Roots Hall of Fame in Alice, Texas. Along that journey Ramon and George had some of the most gifted and talented musicians in Texas. They were the late and great Sixto Sanchez (Hall of Fame Vocalist), Frutoso Balderas, Bobby Gonzales, Rudy Machado, Gilbert Gonzales (Hall of Fame Vocalist), Jimmy Solis and the late Jesse Carrillo. The Arrangers were Gilbert Gonzales and George Soto who made all the arrangements on all The Broken Hearts hits such as Me Piden, Peligro, Plegarias Falsas, Viente Anos, Andan Deciendo, Las Cuatro Milpas, Mi Derrota, Tu No Eres La Primera, etc.. Many thanks to all Broken Hearts!
