"Trios" were bad ass.'' Bad ass is not the word these trios sold millions of records, traveled the world, yet some have died broke. Los Panchos today are very well liked in Japan who would think ! After all are died on of the last remaining members was always in Japan till his recent death Johnny Albino. I remember as a kid these guy were on TV show's ,on the radio 24-7.

I have to congratulate you have taken a step which many do not in music and that the way you get to learn about music in reality. Today many just go with Rumba , reggeton, and all the crazy music out there yet maybe 1/2 know what they are playing or where it came from. Mostly all of the salsa music that is out there today started by guitar players. There was a very famous guitar player back in the 30 maybe 40's in Cuba that with a trio sang the news, Joseito Frenandez he sang all the current news of the day and most of them became interesting hits here is one them Guajira Guantanamera.
Here you also have an current trio you can hear 3 guys http://youtu.be/JOumwinH6v0 the conga player sometimes plays bongo others guitar very interesting.
