Juan García Esquivel

WATCH: Esquivel’s ex-wife talks about his arrival in Las Vegas

WATCH: Bob Wilkins interviews Esquivel around 1968

LISTEN: Esquivel and his orchestra perform ‘Sentimental Journey’

Notice the ‘zoo-zoo’ and ‘pow’ background vocals, along with the exaggerated stereo separation (instruments that only seem to appear from either left or right speaker).

LISTEN: Esquivel and his orchestra perform ‘Mucha Muchacha’

Notice instruments panning from one speaker to the other. Too much of a girl!

LISTEN: Esquivel and his orchestra perform ‘Adiós, Mariquita Linda’

He was an accomplished and inventive piano player!
