Hello.
Thanks for your interest in what we do.
Here is our recent information update.
This update is being sent a few days earlier than initially scheduled (the
Editor's Picks reviews are not yet in place) in order to bring you the
following information:
Funeral services for Ernesto "Tito" Puente will be held at
The Riverside Chapel
180 West 76th Street
at the corner of 76th Street and Amsterdam Ave.
today, Sunday, June 4th and tomorrow, Monday, June 5, 2000
11:00 AM to 7:00 PM
Needless to say, we are devastated at the loss of such a great, great
musician. He was indeed so much larger than life and so much a part of our
culture that his mortality seems that much more jarring. We are planning a
profile of Mr. Puente that, we hope, will do justice to his legacy.
In the meantime, you may view his entire available discography here:

Peter Watrous had compiled a list of some important titles that accompanied
Mr. Puente's obituary (The New York Times, June 2nd). You can view this
listing here:

his definitive biography:

 Descarga.com Latin Music  Update June 04, 2000
UNA VERA SCHIFEZZA............
Il modo scandaloso e cinico con cui questi di 'descarga' hanno USATO  la
morte di una persona a fini commerciali!!!!!
Non so se qualcuno, conoscendo l'inglese, si sia preso la briga di leggere
tutto il post..... !
Per coloro che non ci si sono neanche messi (e han fatto bene), riassumo:
"Grazie per il vostro interessamento alla nostra attività (....?!?....)..
Questo aggiornamento viene inviato con un paio di giorni di anticipo sul
previsto (ma guarda che caso!!!) per trasmettervi la seguente informazione:
- I funerali di Tito puente si terranno.... bla bla.., descrizione di ora e
luogo (non si sa di che città! .. andrebbero bachettati da Bia!) .......
Non c'è bisogno di dire che siamo devastati dalla perdita di questo grande,
grande musicista.
Bla bla  bla con gli elogi alla sua persona ......."
e poi... partono alla grande!!! ... buttando lì, come per caso, un "a
proposito, se vi interessa sapere tutto sulla discografia di T.Puente, noi
abbiamo questo, questo e questo,... oltre ad un libro di 260 pagine, con
bellissime fotografie, contenente la sua biografia........ In più, visto
che ci siamo, il nostro catalogo consta anche di questi altri autori e
titoli......"
CHE TRISTEZZA..................!!!! :-((((
E ho detto tutto....
DiBi (Bo)


...non aggiungo altro!!!
Alex(matador)

 MI ASSOCIO!!! Se fossi un Hacker gli manderei un virus con Tito Puente che
a suon di timbales e con le bacchette gli fracassa tutto il disco fisso!!!!
