Compay Segundo

Compay Segundo. This song reached the masses from the Buena Vista Social Club project and I have heard so many variations and versions performed around the world ever since. Listen to music from Compay Segundo.

July 14 2003 155 PM AP. Collaborating with the likes of Sindo Garay Miguel Matamoros and Benny Moré he emerged as one of the most respected musicians of the pre-revolution era and in the late 20s invented the armónico a guitar customized with a double third string to fuse the tonal qualities of the traditional Cuban tres. Listen to music from Compay Segundo like Guajira Guantanamera Chan Chan more.

The cigar-smoked tones of Compay Segundo who has died aged 95 following kidney problems were central to the musical phenomenon known as the Buena.

That is a lack of culture. Compay Segundo who was nearing 90 when he shot from obscurity to worldwide fame with the Buena Vista Social Club has died in. Compay Segundo Buena Vista Social Club Music Towns are suffering from all these things we should unite until we are all satisfied man cannot be killing each other as if we were animals as if we had no culture. Compay is definitely THE voice of cuban music thanks to such emblematics songs as Chan Chan El Cuarto de Tula.
