🎶 MY 🎶
♫ «-BUDDIES-» ♬
¡Howdy folks!
The 55th edition of the Now Playing weekly contest has just started. And you my steemian friend, actually should join us. Because the promoters of this #nowplaying initiative are expecting tougher competition this year!
So, let's please them by sharing our good music to make the judges' task a lot harder. 😈
On my last entry on Week 53 (Dec 30 - Jan 5) for the beginning of this year. I said that I would share a good chunk of my own countrymen music on steemit. A good chunk of our legendary underground venezuelan bands that delighted us and cheered our lives back in the old good days. And today my friend, today certainly is a good chance to show you just that. :)
On that last entry I shared a very special and haunting song. Yeah! only, solely, exclusively one unique song. ¡Go figure! And I know you stayed hungry waiting for many more.
Hence, for this 55th edition, I'm gonna calm your hunger with a better musical venezuelan banquet. So, following the sequence of the excellent musicians friends already shown in the previous post, tonight I'm gonna share just three videos more about them (Guru, Cangrejo & Yatu) and their unforgettable and well remembered band:
¡Seguridad Nacional!
Yep, haha, the 'Badass Guys' 35 years ago (1984)
From left to right:
- Juan Bautista "Yatu" López: (Bass, Guitar & Vocals)
- Abraham "Cangrejo" García: (Drums, Bass & Vocals)
- Gustavo "Guru" Corma: *(Lead Guitar, Vocals)
Ok, to start, let's do this with another killer piece which was also executed in that remarkable and improvised jam session recorded on videotape that magical night 14 years ago on 2005.
"Cangrejo & Yatu - Vampican"
Next, on this more recent video, on the occasion of an extraordinary interview made in tribute of them with our friend Gabriel and the Comemáiz. I'm gonna show you the third member of the band (Gustavo Corma aka Guru) leader of the band to whom I had not shown him until now in any of the previous videos.
"Interview & Jam Session with Cangrejo & Guru"
Yup, just after few more years, wrinkles and tattoos over their great humanity. ;)
And last but not least.
A video showing the entire original band as special musical guests performing Live On Stage on a concert in the framework of the very popular New Bands Festival of 1993.
¡That's right! this private concert and live appearance on stage in 1993 was indeed 26 years ago. And it happened just one year before the final dissolution of the band in 1994.
On that special occasion and for that memorable concert they were also accompanied on stage by another immortal rock legend in venezuela Carlos Eduardo "Cayayo" Troconis. Leader of the popular venezuelan rock band "Sentimiento Muerto" and Dermis Tatú
Two other emblematic and legendary bands in our country during the 90s that after the dissolution of the band Seguridad Nacional, they were taken under their wings and sponsored by each one of the three former members (Guru, Cangrejo & Yatu) as a source of inspiration since their early musical career. Each of them, often being special guests in the bands that Cayayo led in multiple live appearances and concerts across the country.
¿And why I'm mentioning Cayayo, Sentimiento Muerto and Dermis Tatú?
Oh! well, just because I've already chosen to Dermis Tatú to be the legendary venezuelan band about which I will talk about in a next edition of the Now Playing Week Contest. And since I am so evil, I want to see you waiting with the bib on for a whole week. Because I will show you right now, here, below, a small sample of what is next to come. };)

Yeah! I'm well aware that all the links and videos on this post are in spanish. But nonetheless, I hope you have been able to enjoy them in all their splendor. After all, you have received along with this sneaky wonderful music an unexpected spanish course as a free bundle. :)
