To speak of Pancho Villa is to speak of gallantry and conviction. The Mexican revolution would not have been the same without the intervention of the northern centaur.<\/p>\n
One of the most outstanding protagonists of the revolutionary episode, was born in Durango in 1878: Doroteo Arango, some say, but Pancho Villa for everyone, won the love of the people through the exploits that are narrated of him. His bravery and charisma gave him a special place in our history.<\/p>\n
Man of strong character but with a big heart who always fought for the most demanding social causes. Fairness, loyalty and justice were part of his morale. If he had wanted, he would have been president of Mexico, but his was the people, not the politics he fought against (jobs).<\/p>\n
His figure is exalted and is remembered for the daring mission he undertook in Columbus in 1916. It is not clear what motivated this fact, what is known is that this mobilized the United States armed forces and surprised the entire world.<\/p>\n
The great division of the north was the banner that made Villistas proud in the armed movement led by Villa that was created against the government.<\/p>\n
The Mexican revolution brought with it a host of anecdotes of all kinds, and musicals are no exception, with the emergence of typical songs like the cockroach, one of the bloodiest chapters in the history of Mexico was erected to the rhythm of unique corridos such as The Adelita or The Cockroach.<\/p>\n
For his part, it is said that one of Pancho Villa's favorite songs was Las tres pelonas, which was sometimes performed by wind bands, when Villa wanted to hear it the band from the Northern Division played it and the revolutionary danced and had fun .<\/p>\n
Well freed Pancho came out of the bullshit where his enemies tried to wrap him to see him dead. But luck did not smile on that July 20, 1923 when a conspiracy to ambush him, led by Jes\u00fas Salas Barraza surprised him in Parral, Chihuahua.<\/p>\n
Approximately 150 shots were fired at the car in which Villa was traveling when he was ambushed by a group of armed men who, at the command of a boy, fired when he returned to his hacienda located in Canutillo. The revolutionary that some idolized and others hated fell dead, but the almost religious legend that Pancho sowed was born.<\/p>\n
There is an interesting YouTube video titled: \u201cTestimony of Jos\u00e9 Saenz Pardo on the murder of General Francisco Villa\u201d, in which Jos\u00e9 Saenz Pardo, who was part of the group of shooters who shot Pancho, talks about how they planned the ambush.<\/p>\n
A few days ago, it was 95 years since his death. Today, each mourning anniversary of the Northern Centaur is greeted with great joy. The festivities, which mainly take place in some northern regions of the country, which take place from representations of his death, political acts, fairs, dances and even masses in his memory, reflect the magnitude of Villa's legacy.<\/p>\n
Since that distant 1910, when one of the most important socio-political revolutions in our country began, to date, Pancho Villa has been an inspiration for all kinds of artistic expressions, among all that music cannot be missing. That is why, to his memory, I present 10 songs about Panchito, ranging from rock to metal.<\/p>\n
