When Jerry Castaldo and the founder of the Reptiles, Alan Wyles sit to arrange an original song, they both wonder why they didn’t do this 30 years ago. At 53 and 52 years old, Castaldo and Wyles feel that it’s better late than never. In the last 2 years since Castaldo has joined the Reptiles, the duo have written 14 original tunes and are putting together their first original CD which will be available in January. The original music of the Reptiles is a reflection of the life experiences of both Castaldo and Wyles. Every song has a direct meaning to their lives.
