Pachuco Boogie
by Issac Hernández (not verified), 12/11/2021 - 17:40I Left A Comment Earlier This Year (January The 12th Of 2021) About Pachuco Boogie & Came Back To Revise What I Left. The 3rd Recording Was NOT From 1951. I Got A Hold Of Q-Vo Magazine Vol.II No.II Dated June Of 1980 Some Months Back & There's An Article About The 3rd Recording Of Pachuco Boogie, Dating It To The Late 1970s/Early 1980s. It Was Made With A Possibility Of It Being On The Zoot Suit Play By Luis Valdés. I Also Found On Newspapers.com An Article About Raúl Díaz (Drummer & Vocalist On Pachuco Boogie) & He Says That Pachuco Boogie (The Original Recording) Was Recorded On January The 14th Of 1948. Q-Vo Magazine Also Has A Date, January The 28th Of 1948, Although This Is The Date I Believe Was The Day Pachuco Boogie Surpassed +1,000,000 Record Sales.
