I must have been thinking about a "perfect tanda" with Pa'que Lagrimear at least since June. Here is my current best shot combining three orchestras (but two of them lead by the same director), vocals and an instrumental, but united by the mood and the sound of the epoch. Long live the Old Guard!

I already mentioned Donato Racciatti, "the" Uruguayan tango orchestra, in April - and the fact that we might not have remembered the superb sound of his orchestra without the amazing voice of Nina Miranda. Nina's birth name was Nelly Hunter. At the age of 13, after seeing "Puerta Cerrada", a movie where Libertad Lamarque played the role of Nina Miranda, a tango singer in love against odds, the teenager pledged to become a tango singer and to adopt the name of Nina Miranda. Three years later, she made good on her pledge and joined an all-female tango band, Las Golondrinas, touring at home and in Brazil. Performing with Donato Racciatti marked the the high point of "new Nina's" tango career. It was soon cut short by marriage; her husband wouldn't allow Nelly to perform. Only at the age of 60, widowed, she burst into the music scene again! Racciatti has few records available to us to mix; here's my next shot at a tanda with Nina Miranda's unsurpassed "Gloria".

I wasn't 100% sure about the dance floor apeal these really late, dramatic D'Arienzos ... but it looks like when the energy is high and el gente is high on music, then it can fly!

Slick, polished milongas from Canaro's fav quintet. Might have traded for something more grounded / more challenging in the final tandas of the milonga?

Just a closing vignette; we'll have to play Pedro Maffia, and to talk about his role in tango history, in making bandoneon the voice of tango, in spurring Decaroist revolution and ushering the era of musical complexity of tango, and in turning milonga into a danceable genre of music, another time.
86. Pedro Maffia"Palomita loca" 1930 3:25
