Segundo composed hundreds of songs, many of which are integral to the <i>son</i> repertoire, and played with influential groups including El Conjunto Matamoros and Los Compadres (with fellow Siboney-born musician Lorenzo Hierrezuelo). Segundo continued to play with his group, Compay Segundo y Sus Muchachos, from the 1950s straight into the '90s. In 1994 a group of Warner music executives saw Segundo play in Madrid at a tiny club, and they promptly signed him to a six album deal. Known for his lascivious sense of humor and zest for life, the great singer died at the age of ninety-five in 2003. - Sarah BardeenCubanen720Wed, 30 Dec 2009 23:56:24 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.16235&variant=artist-playlists&rws=%2Fcompay-segundo%2Fplaylists.rss Compay Segundo was the oldest member of the Buena Vista Social Club and the most authentic link to the original flowering of Cuban <i>son</i> in the early part of the 20th century.
