Latest showtime, presenting me and late, great Astor Pizolla (1921-1992), in an Argentinian Tango Showtime Special podcast, rec live at Boulogne-sur-Mer 13. March, 2025
(From the vast archice of my 5000+ interviews); a tiny episode...


Melodies:

Libertango, Differente, Zero Hour, El Choclo, La Cumparasito and many hits, you know.

We met in a jazz club in Paris, late 80s (maybe early 90s?) (with world star Lalo Schiffrin, piano, "Mission Impossible"), (included in the show, a world class composer). One of my first trips to Paris...
I remember.  Recorded on cassette player ... 😊 (Yours the producer,  Joe)

PS: Lalo and Astor studied music in Paris in the 50s....
