RAFAEL HERNANDEZ Campanitas De Cristal

[BACHATABEGINNINGS]

Esta es la version lenta. Version estilo Balada Lenta. La version estilo "Bolero Ritmico Boricua" es mas rapida y movida y la mas preferida en Puerto Rico y el Caribe. Thanks to the poster anyway. Just saying there are different ritmos to it.

This rhythm, bolero, was created in Puerto Rico, but it was adopted by the Mexicans and this mix gave birth to some of the most beautiful melodies in the world to date. In fact Mexican and puertorican bolero share the same cadence because the early performers of the genre were groups composed of both mexicans and puerto ricans such as Los Panchos. Is not a latin american thing... its a Puerto Rican and Mexican thing but it went all over the latin world and we all love it.

@HELLOGUARDIA Rafael brought the style of Boleros Jibaros Boricuas to Mexico. That is what attracted them to the point of paying him to stay and write more there. Other Mexicans like Agustin Lara adopted the Bolero Boricua" style or rhythm on their songs too. This is a slow song. But Preciosa and others are those Boleros.

Pedro Flores and Daniel Santos made them famous too All over Latin America. Now is all "Bachata" which is quite the close to Boleros Jibaros Boricuas (with another name).

Rafael Hernandez se caso con una Mejicana y hasta donde tengo entendido se autoexilio en Mejico y nunca volvio a la isla. El gobierno de EU no estaba a la par con sus posturas politicas, en su cancion Preciosa cuando dice "no importa el tirano te trate con negra maldad" se refiere a EU. Soy Aguadillano pueblo de Don Rafael.
