  1. I really miss my friend Ariovaldo Skrapec. We became acquainted through the Rita Pavone Fan Club in Said Paulo in which both of us were members. Then, I started seeing Ariovaldo at the flea-market on Praca Benedicto Calixto, in Pinheiros where we were always after some vynil record... I realized then we had a lot in common...and Hit Parade history was a major bond we developed...
