  When it was time to get an education, his parents sent him to Pedro G. Goiko Primary School. And soon the guy went to study carpentry at a local school. nine0005

  Rivera saw how hard it was for his father to provide for his family, in order to somehow help him, he began to earn extra money, offering the services of a shoe shiner. And after graduating from college and reaching the age of 16, the guy went to work with his dad as a carpenter.

  other members of the ensemble Monterrey El Conjunto Monterrey. Rivera
  entrusted with the game of congas, and his friend was seated at the bongos. But at that moment Maelo
  could not devote all his time to music, as he worked as a carpenter.

  In 1952, he was drafted into the US Army, but was soon discharged from the reserve because of his lack of knowledge of English. When the guy returned to his homeland, he decided to quit his job as a carpenter, and with the help of Cortijo, he was able to join the Panamericana orchestra, taking the position of vocalist in it. nine0005

  Here he recorded his debut hits with the titles El Charlatán («Charlatan»), Ya Yo Sé («Now I Know»), La Vieja en Camisa («Old Woman in a Shirt») and La Sazón de Abuela («Grandma’s Perfume»). «).

  However, the downtime was short-lived, and soon he joined the Cortijo team, recording several songs that later became very popular among Latin Americans.

  to enjoy creativity and quickly achieved success.

  During another tour in Panama, drugs were found in the singer and he was arrested. This led not only to Rivera’s imprisonment, but also to the breakup of the group. nine0005

  After the end of his prison term, the musician decided to create his own band, calling it Ismael Rivera and His Cachimbos. He gained success almost immediately, and together with the group, Ismael successfully toured for 7 years.

  Then he reunited with childhood friend Cortijo and recorded several more significant hits.

  But, unfortunately, Ismael’s best friend soon left this world. The sad event happened in 1982. Rivera was very depressed, he could not even find the strength to say the last words and sing their common song on the day of the funeral. nine0005
