Hey...

I just found out that my long-dead paternal being spent a good deal of time dressing all in black and playing the bongos in the early 60s. All my mother knows about this is that he may have been called a 'dino'.

Internet searches are revealing nothing besides dino valente... did he have fans/followers known as dinos?

All i know is that my father ended up as a lame stockbroker republican, so to find out that he may have been cool once is a shock.

It could refer to Dino Valente but It could also refer to 'Dino' The Dinosaur in 'The Flintstones'.

Remember that this t.v. cartoon series actually started in 1960.
A long shot but you never know!!!.
