Pianist, leader and composer.
(November 2, 1910 - March 31, 1992)
He was born at the locality of Adrogué (south of grand Buenos Aires) and since early childhood he started to study sight-reading and harmony. His early gigs were accompanying the singer Juan Giliberti, who used to announce his shows with advertisements that said that Gardel himself had appointed him as his musical heir.
Soon he switched to Anselmo Aieta's orchestra replacing the pianist Juan Polito. A curious information: in that line-up Juan D'Arienzo played violin.
Together with the bandoneonist Ernesto de la Cruz, he accompanied the singer Félix Gutiérrez, a successful refrain singer in several orchestras of the period. Briefly, around 1934, he joined the orchestra of Graciano de Leone. Later he teamed-up with Daniel Álvarez and even later, he joined Los Mendocinos orchestra led by Francisco Lauro.
Only after 1940 he put together his own orchestra, debuting on March 20, 1941 at the café Marzotto on Corrientes street, with the vocalist Héctor Morea, the only one of his singers who did not succeed in having a recording date.
He played on radio El Mundo, with the voices of the above-mentioned Morea and the new member, Floreal Ruiz. So we arrived at the “Glostora Tango Club”, a mythical radio program which was daily broadcasted a little before the most popular theater serial on radio: “Los Pérez García”.
So, De Angelis achieved fame and popularity and it was not strange that the Odeon label included him with its artists, where he recorded 486 numbers, from July 23, 1943 to January 21, 1977.
De Angelis was distinguished by choosing very good singers, such as: Floreal Ruiz, Carlos Dante, Julio Martel, Oscar Larroca, Juan Carlos Godoy, Roberto Florio, Roberto Mancini, Lalo Martel, among others.
Carlos Dante's case is quite special because he had already been a consecrated refrain singer and joined the orchestra in his plenitude, becoming its best singer, its distinct seal.
In the forties Alfredo De Angelis was the promoter of the vocal duets. Revising his discography the team Dante-Martel stands out in first place with their “pearls” "Pregonera", "Remolino" and "Pastora", among others. The Dante-Larroca duo comes after, and later Juan Carlos Godoy with Lalo Martel and Roberto Mancini.
He composed "El taladro", as homage to the Banfield soccer club, "Pregonera", "Pastora" (both with lyrics by José Rótulo), "Qué lento corre el tren" (lyrics by Carmelo Volpe) and that melodic wonder that is "Remolino" (with Rótulo as well).
De Angelis neither had Troilo's transcendence nor Pugliese's, but he was an honest leader that sought refuge in the traditional tango which was easily understood by the people. The evidence is in the amount of records that he recorded and that resulted in an impressive commercial success.
Fumando Espero
Alfredo De Angelis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
fumando espero a la que tanto quiero
tras los cristales de alegres ventanales
y mientras fumo mi vida no consumo
porque flotando el humo me suelo adormecer
tendido en mi sofá, fumar y amar
vera mi amada feliz y enamorada
y el devaneo sentir con mas deseo
cuando en sus ojos veo sedientos de pasion
por eso estando mi bien
es mi fumar un edén
dame el humo de tu boca
dame que mi pasion provoca
corre que quiero enloquecer
de placer sintiendo ese calor
de el humo embriagador
que acaba por prender
la llama ardiente del amor.
dame el humo de tu boca
dame que mi pasion provoca
corre que quiero enloquecer
de placer sintiendo ese calor
de el humo embriagador
que acaba por prender
la llama ardiente del amor.

As he lies on his couch, smoking and enjoying his passion, he imagines his loved one coming home happy and in love. He wants to feel her lips on his and passionately kiss her, and he longs to see her eyes filled with desire. The singer believes that smoking is an Eden, a place of complete joy, especially when his beloved is near him.
The chorus of the song repeats the singer's desire for the smoke that comes from his lover's mouth, which provokes his passion and makes him want to lose control. The smoke is so intoxicating, and it ignites the flames of love within him, allowing him to feel the heat of passion.

Muy lindo tema es "Fumando Espero", aquí lo interpreta muy bien Alfredo De Angelis con la voz de Carlos Dante. También lo grabaron Héctor Varela con Argentino Ledesma, Ignacio Corsini. y Carlos Di Sarli y si mal no recuerdo con la voz de Argentino Ledesma.
