The return of El Indio
There is more news from Elito Revé's bajista/composer/arreglista Aisar: as well as his side project, which he discusses at length in my interview with him at timba.com; he is also lined up to work with El Indio on his first solo album since he left Trabuco late last year. I know many people were disappointed at his departure from the group: El Indio and Trabuco always seemed like such a good fit, and he gave knockout performances on countless Trabuco classics – Marcando la distancia, Ven siroco ven, Llegó la música cubana - to name just a few, so it will be great to have him back singing again.
Aisar, currently touring Europe with El Charangón – you lucky European blighters! – says he will write one song, and do a few arrangements, as well as serving as producer. He says Miguelito "Pan con salsa" will also step up for arranging duties for the Bís Music disc.
From the work Aisar has done with Revé, and also what I have heard so far of his solo project, I think this could really be something to look forward to: Aisar is very much steeped in a Cuban sound – which will suit El Indio's classic stylings – but has a fresh touch. I think he will also bear in mind El Indio's considerable legacy with Trabuco and the place he has in people's hearts.
A thousand miles away in another country, another former colleague of El Indio's also has some news. Mamborama's Bill Wolfer is working on a greatest hits collection that will include a new track with another former Trabuquero, Kalunga, on vocals. He has blogged about it - and has a few choice words to say about other matters, as well – here.

El indio es uno de esos cantantes que nace uno cada muchos años. una voz con una fortaleza y afinacion envidiable, SONERO POR EXECELENCIA, un gran improvisador (para mi el mas grande que tiene cuba) desde que lo conoci cantando con la orquesta aliamen lo admiro y respeto. muchos han sido los que lo han querido en sus orquestas desde hace muchos años, los van van, adalberto y su son hasta que decidio y empezo con el trabuco. su trabajo vocal pienso que es INSUSTITUIBLE donde su ausencia SE NOTA CON CRECES.
Gracias a ti yemeya por tu colaboracion.

Muchisimas gracias por tus palabras, Calixto. Yo se que hay mucha gente que piensa igual en respeto de esto estimado cantante Cubano.
Con respecto y admiracion admiro El Indio una personna con una umanidad imensa,un artista simplemente magnifico! Hoy tenido la buena suerte a el placer de conoscere El Indio ;admirar los artista en su trabajo (trabajando en la nueva produzione musical),en su concierto (Cafè Cantante - Habana)una marea endescivible de emociones para mi alma
el Indio de verdad ke es un gran sonero ,pero Manolito Simonet es un musico respetable con tremenda creatividad para componer y como arreglista y eso influye en ke sobresalga el soneo del cantante ,le deseo suerte al Indio.
EL INDIO PARA MI ES UNO DE LOS CANTANTES SONEROS MAS GRANDES QUE HA DADO EL MUNDO, YO TUBE LA SUERTE DE DIRIGIRLO EN LA ORQUESTA ALIAMEN Y EN ESE TIEMPO NUNCA LO ESCUCHÉ DESAFINADO, SIEMPRE TE NIA LA VOZ CLARITA, RESUMIENDO, ES UN MONSTRUO, ADEMAS ES UNA PERSONA MARAVILLOSA, DIGNA DE RESPETO Y ADMIRACION.
