Troilo is not only increasingly popular with tangueras nowadays, but according to this caption below he also had an enormous following of obsessed female fans who kept calling him all day. Apparently, he had even more fans than his singer Francisco Fiorentino (left), whereas one expects that singers were usually more popular than the less visible orchestra leaders. It’s just that Troilo is so exceptional…!

Tango Archive
The idea of this website is to give access to (still undiscovered) photos of tango orchestras and singers found in old archive material.
Photographic material of tango music celebrities on the internet is still very scarce and we are working hard to change that.
We collaborate with Tango Time Machine at Tangodecoder.com to make more original material accessible.
Thank you for everything, Michael
