Villa Alegre (1973–1977)
my uncle was in the show as the guitar player...
27 January 2007
My uncle was the guitar player of the show. Most of the songs he played them, and he was the guy that came out with a guitar to teach the kids a song. I watched the show all the time. Living in Brooklyn, NY it helped me learn about my culture. I remember my uncle came one day to visit us and he gave us the LP of Villa Alegre with all the songs. I remember it had the songs written in the back and all my cousins had the same LP too.

My mother still has it, with the songs written in the back. I remember "Mi hogar es en la Tierra..." as one of my favorite songs. My uncle Cheo Montalvo, died in 1995 and is now buried in Sabana Grande, PR. I have difficulties finding the original shows though. Would like to buy the collection. If anyone knows, it would be great to see the show again to see my uncle.
