kato's good mourning/good evening thread

There's an old Cuban folk song called "quitate tu pa poner me yo" which could translates to "get up so I can sit". Which was sang by the "guajiros" those are the peasants the poor the farmers in the country side, those that Fidel used to build his revolution. This was a very popular country song they sang cause of the injustice they suffered that you can imagine, from the patrones like Happy Boy's family, the bosses land owners that did whatever they wanted at the time. Here it is sang by the legendary Hector Lavoe and the Fania All Stars which was a group of the best of the best Caribbean salsa singers at the time, most of them died of overdose along the years.
