Conjunto Clasico recommendations

[Smejmoon]

I'll admit today I rediscovered Conjunto Clasico. I knew couple songs, but never went deeper. Could you recommend tracks that you like?


For example I like Sin Rumbo Alguno:

the only one I dont know is pau pau..gotta check right now

@groovetpt who is the singer now? can we see this show on Yt or other channel?

 

[groovetpt]

Hi kbitten, Hector Pagan is the current lead singer, actually he has been there for some time now. He does a great job. Here is a 2012 concert, which I believe was in Colombia. There are still " reunion " concerts with Tito Nieves from time to time.

I love conjunto clasico so much. I know this isn't conjunto but Tito Nieves y la masacre's Jovenes y Mayores is sooo good. If you like Ray Castro and el conjunto, you'll enjoy this. At least I hope .

I have another version, of Pau Pau, but I cant remember the album

 

[Abayarde]

well known hits?: Los Rodriguez, Solitario, Felicitaciones, Teresita, Regreso, Piragüero, Cuando Se Quiere, Señora Ley, Faisán, Quincallero, Puertas Abiertas, Panadero, La Filosofía Del Amor, Don Pedrito, Barriguita Llena, Vecinita, Mi Pueblo, A Cali.

we can't forget their albums with Johnny Rivera (1988 & 1989): Al Cristo De Los Milagros, La Juliana, A Medellín, Masacote, Vámonos De Rumba, Mi Sabrosa Guaracha, Volveré, Vigilándote, Soy Olvido & No Quiero Na'.

neither their album with Daniel Santos (1985): Perdóname, Romance Del Campesino, Celos, Vengan Mujeres, Pa' Los Rumberos, Lamento Borincano, Capitán & Desde Que Te Fuiste.

their "Clásicas De Clásico" (1983): San Juan, Como Mi Tierra No Hay & Bandera.

and two albums with Ray De La Paz (1990 & 1992): Sensaciones, Su Hija, Poco A Poco, Guarapero, You Don't Have To Say You Love Me, Describo Mi Conjunto, Te Sigo Queriendo & Elegante Tierra.

last, but not least, it would be unfair if I don't mention "La Masacre" Orchestra where Tito Nieves and Ramon Rodriguez started this concept with Julio Castro in 1979. That's why a lot of people think that "El Pregonero", "Domingo Me Llaman", "Ya Tu No Engañas" and "Dolor Esquina Miseria" are hits from Clásico because they sound alike.
