Estrellas Campesinas - “Lidia” - changüí

Estrellas Campesinas perform "Lidia" at Casa del Changüí in Yateras before a peña on Sunday January 11, 2014.
Of the bandmembers in this video Eduardo Goulet Lestapier "Pipi" (vocals and maracas), Juan Savón (marimbula) , Amado Batalla "Amadito" (bongo de monte) and Francisco Silveira "Zapatico" (dancer) have all passed away. This is a small vignette of history. May they rest in peace.

Timbers, is this a repost?

No, this is one from the same day as one I posted previously. They performed 3 songs that day, but I only uploaded one of them from the beginning, plus the big discussion they had about how one should dance changüí that was funny but quite chaotic with everyone talking at once. I uploaded Ven Yaterana a few years ago. So this (Lidia) and Digna de lástima are "new" as of yesterday. Also I uploaded all three songs with just a close-up of marímbula and bongó del monte, which might be of interest for percussionists. I'm sure other people have also uploaded some of these songs, because they are part of the usual repertoire. I saw that they played Digna de lástima at Amado's funeral.

@@InternationalTimbaConspiracy hmm.. Didn't you post this on the forum a couple years ago? Or at least the dance count debate?

[@InternationalTimbaConspiracy]

@@shaolin1derpalm The Dance Debate yes and possibly/probably Ven Yaterana. But Lidia and Digna de lástima have not been uploaded to KZbin until now.
