VST & Company Photo Album: Nostalgic Photos of The Original Disco Kings

Everyone is a big VST & Company fan!
It's pretty obvious why everyone loves VST & Company. They were the biggest hitmakers of the '70s and early '80s, and to this day their hits have never been surpassed. Their songs have become anthems for any generation, their image iconic. There has never been any musical group that matches the uniqueness and style of VST & Company. They remain one of Philippine music's greatest inspirations, and will forever be in our hearts as a true Pinoy original.

Nostalgia Manila is very proud to present this RARE collection of VST & Company photographs taken from the group's personal photo albums.
Maraming salamat kay: Roger Rigor, Spanky Rigor, Celso Llarina, Monet Gaskell and Male Rigor, who allowed Nostalgia Manila to publish these photos online.

This photo can be seen printed on the back of the first VST & Company album (orange album cover). What makes this photo different from the one in the album sleeve is that the group is seen smiling in this one.
