During his career, he penned more than six hundred compositions, gaining himself an international reputation as the “Cole Porter of Mexico”. His popular melodies, from “Granada” to “You belong to my heart” were recorded for the most admired singers of all the times, including Nat King Cole and Luis Miguel.

Surrounded by pretty and passionate women, famed artist, and sometimes, dangerous criminals, his life was a fantastic story of talent and love.
