Guantanamera

Everybody of a certain age can hum along to this 70's tune even if they can't quite fathom the lyrics. Sadly, one of the members of the group who recorded the song, 'Los Tres Paraguayos' has just died here in Benidorm.

Pedro Álvarez Redes, who played the harp in the group had lived in Benidorm for over 25 years until this week when a heart attack caused the demise of the 72 year-old. He will be missed by his wife and friends, for whom he still played the harp alongside other musicians.
