It was a fateful day in 1958 when a twelve year-old Little Isidore first encountered Johnny Stompinato, Jr. outside of Schwab's Drug Store on Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood. 

    Shamefully abandoned by his mother and reeling from the untimely death of his notorious dad which left him completely alone, Johnny and Isidore instantly became inseparable.
Co-writer, producer, musical director, bass vocalist and lead guitarist, Johnny's vast musical gifts formed the backbone of a body of work which endures to this day. Dark and impassive, Johnny possesses a riveting angelic soulful voice that twins with Isidore's in lead duet:

 And let's not forget his solo hit, the powerful message song in which Johnny's plaintive voice takes on a new and fascinating sound: 
Why Baby Why
