Pasajero by Helado Negro
This mini album from Helado Negro includes two original songs, t 2º Dia and Paz a Ti and covers of classic latin pop songs and outsider jams that include “Jurame” and “Rosita” by Roberto Carlos (not to be confused with Roberto Carlos Lange the man behind Helado Negro), “La La” by Eduardo Mateo, Leo Dan’s “Celia,” and “La Distancia” by Los Iracundos. In addition to these classic South American tunes there is also “Adios Maldito Mundo” a loosely translated version of Pink Floyd’s "Goodbye Cruel World.”
These songs were originally intended as a Christmas gift to Roberto’s parents but then he decided to share it with everyone.
