Rest in peace Godfather

For every musician who has had the opportunity to work in a rock Creole, it is very shocking death of an exponent of this genre. Particularly in my case, it really hurts the game of Arturo "Zambo" Cavero, since I was lucky enough to accompany him to the frame in the rock musical "Charles and his rock".

  In 1982, I worked on that rock, and when the time came to marry my girlfriend Adriana, choose between the two, ask the owner of the rock, be our sponsor. The owner of the rock Samame Mr. Carlos Bulnes, (rest in peace), joyfully accepted this request.

  In the month of July 1984, (considering myself as an artist exponent of our native music), met my third anniversary in this activity. Our sponsor marriage: Carlos Bulnes, wanted homenajearme for this anniversary, and prepared for the event a night of rock, on a particular day, that would not have to cross with weekend performances. He suggested that we should invite Arturo "Zambo" Cavero, and Ana Maria Borja were my godparents for art, the hand of God we were lucky that this was reality.

  I am sure that for me, and to all the musicians who were lucky enough to accompany him on his performance, for Creole artists in full, and for all the people who appreciate his art, the "Zambo Cavero" will always live in our memories . Never turn off the voice that will be heard in the depths of our being.

The charismatic Eva Ayllon

In 1982, I worked as a musician guitarist and bassist in the rock "and Charles Peña" and I had the great opportunity to accompany - musically speaking - to many national artists and the occasional international. I learned a lot in those years. Both the native joint, as in the orchestra. Because the rock was set criollo and orchestra. With the set criollo was lucky to accompany "The Limeñita and Ascoy".My attitude at the rock, was somewhat selective in relation to artists operating in the premises. First observed behavior with other artists, and then I decided, if I approached, or not, to make conversation with him or her. If he saw that the singer was a little left over, I approached and no more afar, a smile on my diplomacy. But - of course - doing my work musically accompany. Total, I only understood with the director of the orchestra.I believe that family education strongly influences the behavior of people, and in cases of artists - singers, musicians, etc.. - Operates in the same way. But there is also the factor - overcome - to want: after achieving some fame, worry about learning to be more people. Grown, culturally speaking. Not everyone has the initiative (and the players).From the best impressions on me that caused the artists of that time, and with whom he could converse in a alturada, were: Eddy Martinez, Alejandro Ascoy, Cecilia Barraza, Neda Huambachano, Paquita Romero, Alberto Aro, Linda Lorens, Roberto Tello, Arturo "Zambo" Cavero, and some others that escape my memory.Unfortunately it was the other group, of which I will not mention their names, but I'll make an exception, because it is the news of the day. Eva Ayllon. The first impression I caused when I met her, was, that petulance and sobradera to others. I never went to pretend to make conversation with her. The opposite of the other, that the ayayaban and celebrated all his fits of indulgence of spoiled children.She has always been, and always will be. There is nothing to defend (as it has done: Gian Marco) there, who like to see on stage a person that mistreats its malcriadeces. It seems that these people like to be led by the evil (and that's possible).Anecdotally negative, always remember the rock "and Charles Peña". Appeared, began to sing and after each song, he turned his back to the audience and began to talk with the musicians (with me, of course) caring little or nothing to the public. And then he turned and said to the public that another pachotada (demonstrating its excellent low cultural level)Eva, is, and will remain so. If you never bothered to read, educate yourself a little more and try to be a better person, it's her problem. Now is when you start to harvest, everything that has been spoiled.
