Get to know more about Rockin' Kiko
And His Music

This album is a mix of different songs that are multi faceted much like the musician who wrote them. Even though Rockin Kiko’s influences were from the Chicago Blues, to Classic Rock of the 60’s 70’s and 80’s, There was some pop influences that came out in the songs, much to the credit of the songs Kiko was drawn to in the 80’s as he went from gig to gig trying to making a buck while living to play his guitar.

Kiko is a born native of the San Francisco Bay Area. He grew up in the 70's and loved listening to the radio. Music was a big influence at such an early age. Ace Frehley was his first guitar influence. Since Kiss wasn't actively played on the radio, Kiko got introduced to other 70's rock and pop, including Kansas, Styx, The Eagles, Heart, Derrick and the Domino's, etc,...

When the 80's came around the music styles changed again with disco going out with classic rock as we know it today, and heavy metal came in along with a differnt kinds of pop music. Kiko was more of a fan of bands like Blondie, Joan Jett, Pat Benatar, and Def Leppard to name a few.

He started learning guitar at 15. His grandfather who Kiko was working with, bought him an old used electric guitar for $35 and a 10 watt amp. Kiko was self taught to play guitar. He did pay for someone to show him bar chords and picked up different scales from other players he jammed with.

When Kiko became a young man he did a lot of moving around. He spent time in places like Chicago, and Los Angeles among other places. During his time in the 90's Kiko discovered blues and really got into artists like Eric Clapton, BB King, Stevie Ray Vaughn, and getting more appreciation for Jimi Hendrix. Even though Kiko isn't a total blues player, the is no doubt that there is some definitive blues influence in the music.

Today Kiko makes his home in Florida. Kiko started writing music in 1997.

Today Rockin Kiko has put all the influences into one album and Makin’ Music was born!

Song and Lyrics by: Rockin' Kiko

Got this song in my mind, my six string at my side.
I got a melody in my head as I plug it into overdrive.
Get some jammin' bass now, and some of that slammin' drum
To get that groovy sound that we want and think about having fun.

Just makin' music, every night and day.
Just makin' music hey hey hey...

Add that heavenly rhythm, along with that bass line
Gotta have that catchy lyrics to all fit together in time.
Top it off with some of that lead guitar that really really carries the song.
jump Jive and Wail, to carry that song along.

Just makin' music, every night and day.
Just makin' music hey hey hey...

SOLO:....

Just makin' music, every night and day.
Just makin' music hey hey hey...

Just makin' music hey hey hey...

Song and Lyrics by: Rockin' Kiko

Everyone knows that your hungry
Everyone knows what you need
Everyone thinks you 'll be champion
and bring the opposition down to their knees

Heavy favorites with the odd makers
Everybodys betting on you.
Well I tell you One thing, my friend
I don't think that its true.

Bridge:
If you wanna raise that trophy
One thing that stands in your way is me.

Chorus:
You gotta go through me, if you wanna raise that trophy high.
You gotta bring your "A" game now, cause you know the competition's gonna be high.

Everyone knows your a trash talker
You talk a real good game.
But everyone knows the game is not decided on what people say.
I do my talking on the field of play
Its just how I am.

I give my all till the final gun,
and I'll show you what kind of man I am.

Bridge:
If you wanna raise that trohpy
One thing that stands in your way is me.

Chorus:
You gotta go through me, if you wanna raise that trophy high.
You gotta bring your "A" game now, cause you know the competition's gonna be high.

Bridge:
If you wanna raise that trophy

Chorus:
You gotta go through me, if you wanna raise that trophy high.

You gotta go through me, if you wanna raise that trophy so so high.
You gotta bring your "A" game now, cause you know the competition's gonna be high. so high, you gotta bring your A game now... bring your A game know, I'm ready for you now....

What About Blondie

From the album: Makin' Music
Song and Lyrics by: Rockin' Kiko

Older lady, with a heart of gold.
I couldn't really part with her so I'm told.
She comes down with a little stage fright...

Bridge:
She's my kind of lady, She's alright,
every daddy wants her to rock out tonight!

Chorus:
But what about Blondie?
She is alone tonight.
Blondie, she'll make everything alright!

She can talk so sweet and shecan get down.
She can keep the beat and really rock out!
If she could only get past her fright?!

Bridge 2:
A tiny little vixen, but shes uptight.
Hope she can break out of her shell tonight!

Chorus:
But what about Blondie?
She is alone tonight.
Blondie, she'll make everything alright!

I saw her take the stage when no one's around.
She really rocked out and really laid it down.
When someone came in she ran away.

Bridge:
She's my kind of lady, She's alright,
every daddy wants her to rock out tonight!

Chorus:
But what about Blondie?
She is alone tonight.
Blondie, she'll make everything alright!

Two Hearts

noreply@blogger.com (Rockin Kiko) — Sat, 03 Oct 2009 05:37:00 +0000

From the album: Makin' Music
Song and Lyrics by: Rockin' Kiko

A dream fulfilled every man's desire
A soul of an angel with a heart of fire
Driven by Passion, fueled with love
Can you touch my soul?

You very name is the sweetest perfume
It draws me away from the others who loom
Take me away to a secret place, and there I can share my love

Chorus:
Two hearts born to be as one can't you see
And two hearts longing to be together for eternity

It's been so long since I waited for you
A longing inside, but I saw it through
Now you're here before my eyes
It's dream come true

Chorus:
Two hearts born to be as one can't you see
And two hearts longing to be together for eternity

Your sweet love overwhelms me,
Carries me away, makes me weak in the knees
I don't know what I ever did to deserve your love?!

Chorus:
Two hearts born to be as one can't you see
And two hearts longing to be together for eternity

Song and Lyrics by: Rockin' Kiko

When you're gone, I got your memories on my mind baby
Feels like my heart is empty when you're away
Time is short and I have to fly away tonight
It's hard to say goodbye to you

Chorus:
I'm sad and blue without you
Can't sleep without you in my arms baby
Can't imagine the world without you
Stay with me tonight

Please stay. Give me a moment of your day
I don't want to walk away
One reason, just one reason not to walk out that door
Don't want to leave you baby

Chorus

What is the Meaning of Life

noreply@blogger.com (Rockin Kiko) — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 10:28:00 +0000

From the album: Makin' Music
Song and Lyrics by: Rockin' Kiko

I wake up really early and get out of bed
I put a comb through my tired head
I get in the care and I drive real far
Gotta be at work by a quarter to four

Tell me, what is the meaning of life?

Working real hard each and every day
Work my fingers to an early grave
My boss is never satisfied with work I do
It makes me want to call in sick with the flu

Tell me, what is the meaning of life?

Hustle and bustle each and everywhere
Gotta keep going with no time to spare
One of these days my day will be all mine
e? I can't stop now, got to be on time

Tell me, what is the meaning of life?

Life is so crazy, makes me go insane
Brother are you listening, can you feel my pain?
Work so hard just to get ahead
Work all my life till I,m buried and dead

Tell me, what is the meaning of life?
