Quien compuso esta cancion (La Sitiera) originalmente? Porque veo muchos nombres como compositores, pero ningunos pueden haberlo compuesto, como son mucho mas recientes que Barbarito, y me acuerdo de esta cancion desde nina en los 50's. Ademas que el nombre del album "Asi Bailaba Cuba" suggiere que son canciones todavia mas ancianas. Sabe alguien cuando se compuso y por quien?
