Timmy T, "One More Try"

Rocky Road

From Classic Rock to Progessive to hip hop to today's hot new tunes!

30 years ago, my friends from San Francisco were preparing to return to their respective colleges. But before dispersing, a group of us went on the Bay, and visited Angel Island. On certain sides of the island, our Walkmen could receive radio stations. Aw man, when Timmy T[orres]' "One More Try" played, we wanted winter break to extend juuuuuuust a little longer.

It was even more excruciating for long-distance couples, who now had to part for the Winter 1991 quarter. Be that as it may, 30 years later, Timmy T's "One More Try" remains a favorite.

Timmy T was originally from Fresno, which is where quite a few of my college classmates came from. He moved to L.A., to latch on to the dance/freestyle scene. Interestingly, "One More Try" broke out of the club circuit, and made it to the mainstream. In March 1991, "One More Try" made it to #1, one of the very few freestyle songs to do so.
