...-I really think it's a shame that they weren't given this time to enjoy the song more; well, what can you tell us about this number, "Juventud del presente"?
-"Juventud del presente" is a number, a little number that I did in guaguancó, so I recorded it in guaguancó rhythm with a tremendous amount of people, that's what I did once when Mr. Mario Ruiz Armengol invited me to record at RCA Victor, and I was lucky enough to gather many Cubans who were here; the quartet Los Cafro, which was Tino Rodriguez, Tony, Margarita de la 0 and Melva, also El Gallego de Matanzas, Aurelio Tamayo, Yeyo, Roberto Puente, Chocolate, Tabaquito mi compadre (because in this same album there is a comparsa number where Manolo plays the trumpet, and Domingo Vernier, Mango, plays the flute, but in another number called "El bombo arrollador"); In this number Guaguancó after I recorded it, I gave it to Celia Cruz, and Celia recorded it with Sonora Matancera and I am very grateful to her, to all the performers who have recorded my music I thank them from the bottom of my heart

very possible error ( The "Los Cafro" Quartet is not the 4 below )
It is not known if any of them was the bass, the tres (Cuban guitar)...:
El Gallego ( de Matanzas y Melón ) AKA Luis Ángel Silva
