‘Buena Vista’ legend Segundo dies at 95
With his trademark Panama hat and cigar, he was the frontman for a group of retired musicians who revived world interest in traditional Cuban rhythms.
“The flowers of life come to everyone. One has to be ready not to miss them. Mine arrived after I was 90,” the musician said in a recent interview. He died in his Havana home before midnight on Sunday of kidney failure, his son Salvador said.
