My Rafael Canaro tanda for
.. 5 pm.
It´s a tanda mezclada. Not only that I mixed different sessions, I´m also ending with a differnt orchestra. I did so because my rafaelo stock still is small and aside from that I chose the more salón-like arranged pieces, instead of those even more old guard-ish sounding tracks. By the way, could be an interesting topic whether deCaro was inventing tango de salón first or those extranjeros as Rafael or
Manuel Pizarro that got under the influence of our continental tradition.
Rafael Canaro (A)
Mamá, yo quiero un novio, 1929 (2:58 ) Rafael Canaro cantan Carlos Dante y Rafael Canaro
A Montmartre, 1930 (2:45´) Rafael Canaro con Carlos Dante
(
Envidia, 1936 (3:01) Rafael Canaro con Luis Scalón )
Paciencia, 1936 (2:43) Rafael Canaro con Luis Scalón
Alma de Tango, 1935 (2:42) Rafael Canaro con Mario Beltrán
Envidia is the most modern sounding piece in this tanda and I like it the best. But sometimes Alma de Tango got a better cadential effect.
Rafael Canaro (B)
Volvé mimosa, 1938 (3:02) Rafael Canaro con Roger Toussand
La mélodie de notre adieu, 1936 (3:17) Rafael Canaro con Raoúl Sanders
Yo no sé porque te quiero, 1937 (3:04) Rafael Canaro con Raúl Sanders
(
Rien que nous deux, 1937 (3:11) Rafael Canaro con Raúl Sanders )
El que a hierro mata, 1936 (3:00) Rafael Canaro con Mario Beltrán
(
Poema, 1932 (3:13) A.-J. Pesenti con Nena Sainz )
From this tanda I like Volvé mimosa best, which also was written by Rafael Canaro.
Cortina Minnie the moocher, 1930 (3:05) Cab Calloway
