An exhibition by Pupi Castello with Luciana Valle at club Sunderland in the late 1990's. The tango is Gallo ciego by Agustin Bardi, the orchestra of Osvaldo Pugliese. Video courtesy of Bridge to the Tango.
QUE PODEMOS DECIR DE PUPI QUE NO SEA RESPETO, LO LAMENTABLE ES QUE LO CONOCIMOS DEMASIADO TARDE, PERO LA CALIDAD ESTABA INTACTA; GRANDE PUPI, Y SI CLAUDIO LEE ESTO, PARA VOS CLAUDIO UN GRAN SALUDO;
At 0:51, she misses his lead as he's slowing down the ochos to go with the music, and you can see him smile and as he continues after he knows exactly where to put her :) Fantastic dancer!
Extrañamos tanto a Pupi, si me parece verlo todavia en la puerta de la milonga fumando un cigarro y haciendo la pausa de esa fiesta interminable que es la milonga...
This is Pupi's favorite song to perform to during his several visits to NYC in the late 1990s and for me this is THE song that will remind me of him. (Just like A Evaristo Carriego for the late Gavito). Pupi was the old-school tangeuro who left those of us in NYC lots of crazy (and funny) memories. Thank you for posting this piece of tango history. RIP Pupi.
