In 1952 Roberto Goyeneche is convoked to sing in Horacio Salgán’s orchestra where he sang with Angel “Paya” Díaz. Among his records with Salgán were “Alma de loca” (“Soul of crazy woman”) and “Un cielo para los dos” (“A sky for the both of us”), which he sang with Díaz. Later on he is convoked by Troilo’s orchestra, and he forms a vocal duet with Angel Cárdenas. At first Troilo did not like the idea of Goyeneche singing in his orchestra because he thought the singer looked “like a cowboy” (“tenía pinta de cowboy”) but, in the end, they became good friends. It was Troilo himself who encouraged Goyeneche to pursue a soloist career, which the singer started in 1963. He was one of th best singers of that time.
