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

  • @coelebs50 Estimado HérculesAzteca,escuché con atención todos los boleristas que me citastesy de doy las gracias.Pero me ratifico a favor de JAVIER SOLÍS. Por qué,¿te preguntarás?.Mira,los otros boleristas,en general, ienen el denominador común de una voz muy parecida, representativa de una época;la voz de JAVIER SOLÍS rompió moldes: Potente,varonil,aterciopelada, tiene dicción,vocalización,rebosa sentimiento y genialidad y le dio un aire nuevo y fresco al BOLERO ROMANTICO,especialmente.

  • @HerculesAzteca Todavía más, HérculesActeca, a JAVIER SOLIS hay que darle dos coronas de Rey. La primera,sobre todo,REY DEL BOLERO ROMÁNTICO, y la segunda corona como REY DEL BOLERO RANCHERO.Piezas como "Y que hiciste del amor...","Cuando vuelva a tu lado","La mentira","Si Dios me quita la vida", "Voy","hablame","Escríbeme"etc­.etc. etc.son obras de arte. Hay miles de boleristas y muchos de ellos excepcionales. pero, por favor,no me compares a ninguno de ellos con JAVIER SOLÍS,es demasiado bueno.

  • Javier,solia escojer las letras de las canciones,no importa de quien fuera y a la misma vez, le entregaba su don musical y le daba la dimension requerida que hacia olvidar quien la escribia.Eso pone a un interprete a la altura,claro acompanado de tremenda voz de interpretacion que poseia.Por eso,cuando aclaran que la letra es de "fulano",yo no le pongo mente,simplemente oigo la voz del maestro,en este caso el Sr.Javier Solis.
