To the music community, here I share this piece, which I learned from the interpretation of the major sonero Ismael Rivera, who for me has been a case of high interest, of Puerto Rican origin from the barrios, voice of his time, of his context, singer of the bomba and the plena, he revolutionized the forms of phrasing and his voice was never erased from the history of Latin-Caribbean music and generations of generations later we continue to listen to him.

Ismael Rivera to whom his mother sang "maquinolandera" and told him that this song would give him the place he occupies today, was not wrong, the sonero playing with the panamericana, cortijo and his combo, his jail group and his cachimbos realized his ability and put it to make dance especially to the neighborhoods of Latin America and the Caribbean.

I met him through another Caribbean genre, reggae, made by his compatriots, the Gomba jahbari, "las tumbas" by Boby Capó, became a very important theme in my days, for its groove and its aesthetic daring, when I knew that who sang it was a certain Ismael Rivera, I went in his Sonora search and found a disc "esto si es lo mío" but I did not get "las tumbas", however it opened the door of that immense musical world to me.

Then in that same listening, I found the theme that I present today as a piece with a broad aesthetic proposal, from a minor key to a major and a few turns ahead of what is coming without being obvious, a piece from the pen of Placido Acevedo, with a very candela lyrics ....

Here are his lyrics...

Angelica

Angelica they call you because you have something angelic in your things, a beautiful maiden like the muse that inspires me to sing this sweet song, brown hair, white teeth like almiño and what a sandal-like gait you have.
For you I would give my life, without you I am no one, white cloud that spreads slowly, clear blue sky, blue sky, blue sky.
Grant me for a moment the tenderness that gives me inspiration, let me free from your mouth the soft nectar of love.
For you I would give my life I am no one without you I am no one white cloud that spreads slowly clear blue sky, blue sky, blue sky, blue sky.
