JSngry Posted September 21, 2016 Report Share Posted September 21, 2016 Can't do YouTube from work, but there is an account holder there named "Ruben Toledo" who has a buttload full of footages up. The stuff I saw was not at all well-presented, no complete clips (if indeed they do exist), but still, a relatively ginormous amount of kinescopes (from either Cuban or PR TV, I would think) and movie clips, etc, seemingly from the 50s through the early-ish 70s. Artist identity is also a non-given, so this is really an archeology project. Now the question I have is simple - if this guy has these excerpts to compile on YT, does that mean that he also has full footages, or is this all that has survived? Some of this stuff is revelatory, really, seeing this music and these people, actually moving and singing, really doing that, instead of coming out of record player speakers, incredibly cool.

This guy (Ruben Toledo) is the leader and conga-player of Grupo La Lleva, a Colombian salsa dura band (he has also posted some great clips of his own band live). So the source of these vintage clips could be Colombian TV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
