... "Born and raised in Samut Songkhram province, Sonkhiri left school at a young age to work on his family's coconut palm farm, and later a pineapple plantation down in Prachuap Khiri Khan. Between shifts, he would always entertain his fellow farmhands by singing the songs of khamron sambunnanon, dreaming of becoming a famous singer. . . . . After many years of performing with a popular local ramwong group, came to the attention of Luk Thung maestro Phaibun Butkhan. With the hits of phaibun to propel him, Sonkhiri became a huge star throughout the [ Thai ] kingdom. Sadly, he was killed in a motor accident in 1972 ". ( Monrakplengthai's blog ).
