The classic payador was the one of the rural areas, the one who traveled across the towns of the interior and the country taverns in order to contest with the well-known local peers.

He used to do it for the sake of pleasure and his reward was: food and shelter.

Instead we can call Betinotti –and some other of his time- an urban payador.

The one who, preferably, does not get out of his town, but prowls around the outskirts of town and, from time to time agrees to travel to the interior, not in a wandering way but with an arranged route, after an agreement about the money, or being allowed to organize raffles to raise funds on his own benefit or to sell his photographs.

He was spellbound by the bandoneon when he heard its sound at cafés in his neighborhood.

He was ten when he persuaded his mother into buying one for him.

His first encounter with an audience was when he was eleven, on a stage near El Abasto, a noisy market of fruit and vegetables, today transformed into a shopping-center.

In 1941 he started recording with his emblematic singer, Francisco Fiorentino.

As composer, Troilo contributed an extensive number of major works. Among them: “Total pa’qué sirvo”.

There was no criollo gathering or gaucho ensemble in Buenos Aires and its outskirts that did not count him as one of its great entertainers since 1900, since as a child he began in the art of footwork and very soon afterward, the secrets of the guitar to accompany himself singing first and then serve their inspiration, in styles, figures, and milongas.

Already in his first adventures, Carlos Gardel recorded the style “El Sueño”, his original work, in 1912, on Columbia records, and over time he did the same with “Maragata”.

Martino died in 1938, but three years after his death, Aníbal Troilo, who deeply admired Carlos Gardel and wanted his orchestra to sound like the voice of the Morocho, adapted this tune in time of tango and made a wonderful creation with the priceless intonation by Francisco Fiorentino.
