Delgado’s next tasks had been Pacho Alonso’s Orchestra as well as the Galaxia Group, where he documented his 1st albums. Fame started to enter his existence when he caused N.G. La Banda, the Cuban dance group, which drawn large viewers in European countries, Japan, Latin America, as well as the U.S. using their energetic playing and 1992 strike recording, En la Calle.
