Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.

Lots of Notable Graduates from Fairfax High School in Los Angeles-- Part 1

From Wikipedia.

In the last blog entry about the death of record producer David Anderle, I mentioned that he graduated from Fairfax High School in Los Angeles and had Herb Alpert, Jerry Moss and Shel Talmy as classmates.  That is a lot of music talent from one high school, so I decided to check out the list of notable alumni on the school's Wikipedia page.

I was quite impressed with the list.  This is just part of it, mostly the ones I am familiar with.  Jerry Moss was not listed as a graduate.

STEVEN ADLER--  Drummer Guns N' Roses
HERB ALPERT--  musician and music industry executive (A&M Records)
MICHAEL "FLEA" BALZARY--  Red Hot Chili Peppers

LARRY GELBART--  TV write and producer MASH
DARLA HOOD--  actress on "Our Gang"
TIMOTHY HUTTON--  actor

JACK IRONS--  Drummer Red Hot Chili Peppers
JACKIE JACKSON--  Jackson Five
TITO JACKSON--  Jackson Five
