:52:03
I told him I didn't want
to sing any more
:52:06
But he said "No, man, I need you"
So I ask him when
:52:12
Tomorrow? I said.
And he said "No, right now"
:52:15
Well, let me have a shower
No, no, right now he said
:52:19
All I had time for was
to wash my face...
:52:23
...and wipe the shoe polish
off my hands
:52:26
So we came here, to the Egrem
:52:29
And here, in the Egrem studios,
I found Eliades Ochoa
:52:35
He was with Compay Segundo.
And Ruben was playing the piano
:52:45
When Ruben saw me,
he started playing...
:52:52
That's a number I'd made
popular in Cuba
:52:57
It's called Candela, by
Faustino Oramas 'EI Guayabero'
:53:01
There goes a dancing rat,
having a whale ofa time
:53:05
While a mouse drums out a tune
to brighten up the day
:53:09
A cat comes along, too.
So elegant and content
:53:11
Good evening, friend
he says to the drummer
:53:15
Anyway, I started singing
:53:19
And Ry, who was in the booth,
must have been listening
:53:26
He heard me...
:53:28
...and decided to record it
:53:32
So I said OK. And we recorded it
:53:36
And that is how it all started
:53:39
Fire! Fire!
I'm burning up!
:53:42
Faustino Oramas and friends,
put this fire out forme!
:53:50
Just dial seven zeros
and the firemen will be right here
