Javier Solis - Sigamos Pecando

Javier Solís (September 1, 1931, Mexico City, Mexico[1] April 19, 1966, Mexico City, Mexico) was a popular Mexican singer of boleros and rancheras, and film actor of the middle 20th century.

Born Gabriel Siria Levario, Javier Solis became known as one of the most recognized Mariachi solo artists in Mexico. Coming from humble beginnings, at a young age Solis had to drop out of school to help support his family. He trained as an amateur boxer for six years with aspirations of turning professional, but quit after his father urged him to choose a more "decent" career. The young man used to sing in local competitions for small prizes (such as a pair of new shoes), but was eventually banned from participating because he so dominated the competition.

At age 16, Solis went to Puebla, Mexico to sing with Mariachi Metepec, but it wasn't until years later when Julito Rodriguez and Alfredo Gil of the trio Los Panchos heard him singing at a local bar that he got his first break as a recording artist. They took him to audition with CBS records where he signed a recording contract and cut his first album in 1950. His first hit, "Lloraras," came two years later and prompted his producer Felipe Valdes Leal to give him the name Javier Solis. The vocalist came to international acclaim in 1957, making appearances in the United States, Central, and South America. Solis was the first to sing songs in a style now known as "Boleros-Rancheras." He sang boleros typically associated with trio music but now accompanied by mariachis, also adding waltzes and tangos to his repertoire as a prolific interpreter of many styles of music.

Not content with simply performing as a recording artist, Solis began his acting career in 1959; filming more than 20 movies with stars such as Maria Victoria, Lola Beltran, and Luis Aguilar. Javier Solis died in 1966 at age 33 from complications resulting from gall bladder surgery, leaving behind a brief but memorable musical legacy. ~ Zac Johnson, All Music Guide

[Betillo731]

Ademas de ser un tremendo cantante, Javier también sabía declamar, queda demostrado en este sublime canción.

me gusta mucho,creo que es musica que sera para siempre

[mspd1951]

Uno de mis cantantes favoritos y éste es el tema suyo que más me gusta. No sólo es hermosa su voz ...¡Cómo declama Javier Solís! Pero no existe nada PERFECTO: Me gusta todo lo que se hace por AMOR, menos esas dos palabras: "sigamos pecando", porque así no se alcanza la verdadera FELICIDAD. Hay cosas por encima del egoísmo, como la LEALTAD...

[viscotella]

No sabía que cantaba, este éxito de los tres diamantes...Buenísimo!!



[eljavierista]

algunos cantantes actuales cantan bien pero hasta ahi. pues no alcanzan la exelencia ni la calidad ni el sentmiento y mucho menos lo magistral que si tenia el rey y maestro del canto del bolero ranchero que era javier solis. se los digo con todo respeto.

[eljavierista]

y es mexicano orgullosamente.para que no digan que es de otro pais porque por ahi escuche que era de aqui que era de alla pues no es nuestro. si mi pais no lo quiere reconocer como suyo pues alla ellos pero es nuestro.

Este señor acariciaba con la voz, me encantó y me sigue encantando. Sólo por eso debe estar muy cerca de Dios.
