The EZ Band has earned the admiration of some, but also the antipathy of others, as it has ventured into a field where not many have dared to get their feet wet, but also it does it in a natural waywhich, at least in the musical part, is very well put together and with great sense and talent.
They are a group that plays everything, but in northern styleis led by the musician Jaime Guevara and lie in Houstontheir peculiarity has allowed them to appear in reports of great United States newspapers and at leastn Texas are a phenomenon that brings thousands of people to its dances.
AND within that versatility that Jaime himself, who knows how to play various instruments, recorded as a tribute to the recent death of Akira Toriyamaa northern cumbia version of the song “Dragon Ball”it’s about the song “Chala head Chala”, where he plays the drums, the bass, the accordion, the sixth bass, sings and even does the backing vocals himself, as he published it in Instagram:
“Thank you Akira Toriyama for all the good times I had in front of the television when I was just a little saiyan. All the problems disappeared when this great song started and I forgot everything. You already know that the only way I know how to express myself is through music. So there goes this topic again called “Chala head Chala” from the legendary series Dragon Ball Z. You are an incredible being, you gave your best and that is why I admire you. Goodbye old friend, fly high. See you in Another world”.
The Latin version song of the series
“Heaven shines around me. When flying, sparkles shine in the clouds Without end, you can freely cross the blue sky today, the truth suddenly flees from you. Like a volcano eruptedmelt a large glacier, you will be able to see a large dragon up close.
Cha-la head-cha-la, no matter what happens, I will always keep my spirits up. Chala head Chala, vibrant my heart feels emotion, I will make a Genkidama” says the lyrics.
It all started in 1984 when Toriyama created Goku, but it was not until 1993 when the series began to be broadcast on Channel 5 nationwide and it was on September 2, 1997 when dragon ball was first broadcast in Mexico and since then it got into the hearts of all its followers in our country, along with that adaptation of the main theme with which it began, which was the work of singer and musical director Ricardo Silva.
