My Take
Goyeneche is, frankly, my kind of legend. Before the fame he drove buses and taxis, and that lived hardship is precisely what I hear in a great tango voice: a depth no sheet music can notate. Nicknamed El Polaco for his pale hair and gauntness, he became the very embodiment of 1950s Buenos Aires bohemian life and a living myth in his homeland. Born in 1926 in Entre Rios and gone in 1994, he left a raspy, world-weary sound that still tightens my chest just to imagine. He understood, and proved, that tango is not a song but a whole way of living.
