Ah so cool. Thanks. Born in 1934 in Freetown, Sierra Leone to a Sierra Leone Creole family, Pino was the son of a Sierra Leonean lawyer, and a mother who died when he was young. He co-founded the Heartbeats in the 1960s and was Chairman of the Performing Musicians Association of Nigeria Rivers State Branch from 1995 to 2004. He died of illness in Port Harcourt on 9 November 2008." Same birthday as me, but not the same year.
