His parents, Eustaquio Dávila, a native of San Juan and a dobbing trader at the docks, and his mother Juana Rosario, a native of Bayamón, dedicated to household chores. He was one of the most versatile singers of the Caribbean pentagram, besides being one of the most extraordinary singers of boleros, he was also a natural sonero and an unequaled singer of the bomb and the full, genres of Puerto Rican popular music, as he proved In his great successes and songs of the street that Cortijo and Kako registered for the record label Ansonia.
Its history goes back to the fifties when, in a modest way, with the maestro of Mambo Pérez Prado, the atmosphere of the great metropolis gives him the opportunity to join bands of virtuous young people who in the sixties would begin to be recognized as the leaders of the Salsero movement.
And where does the Chivirico come from? According to Rafael Quintero, who gave him an interview with Rafael Dávila, he told him the following: "El Chivirico comes from a great singer who was a friend of mine, Orlando Guerra Cascarita." There was a jam in Havana, saying: When we were making a recording, the producer asked for me: "What's the name of this?" I said my name and he said, "Well, everyone here is called Rafitas. I recorded two Rafitas: Rafita Martinez and I Rafita Dávila Cascarita intervened and told the Producer: If this one is more popular than a Chivirico in Havana, then put Chivirico, and thus the name of Chivirico Dávila was born. "
Chivirico was one of the few singers who survived the transition from the era of mambo and boogaloo to the sound of New York salsa. When he signed to record as a soloist for Coutique Records, Chivirico already stood out as a composer and singer with the Taboo Quartet by Johnny Goicuría and Richie Ray.
In 1969 Joey Pastrana & His Orchestra recorded a 45 rpm single format album that included the songs "Pastrana Llegó" and "Color My World", in the voice of Chivirico Dávila, under the label Cotique Records, C- 200.
The 1973 album Chivirico, by Johnny Pacheco and arranged by the pianist Jorge Millet in 1973, was his passport to success as a soloist, so much so that he facilitated his foray into Fania All Stars in 1975 with his interpretation of the bolero " The same as you ", printed on the vinyl record" Tribute to Tito Rodríguez ".
In this recording you can appreciate the affection that Chivirico has for the Antillean bolero with four Latin American repertoires: "Mala Noche" by Domingo Domínguez, "Respétala" by Agustín Robot, "Como Fue" by Ernesto Duarte and his version of the old Tango "Niebla del Riachuelo" by Enrique Cadícamo and Juan Carlos Cobián. "Respétala", the story of a woman who makes a living that serving drinks in a bar, is one of the boleros that later gave rise to the LP "Vendre Por Ti", completely composed of romantic melodies.
Nevertheless, in 1973 Chivirico the sonero, had much to contribute to the world of the sauce. The guaguancós printed on the LP are still irresistible for the dancers. "That's why it stings here," with Yayo el Indio and Adalberto Santiago in the choir, is a magnificent and intense guaguancó. "El Babalao", inspired by Santeria rituals of the time, outlines the recipe for fraud and in the voice of Chivirico, safeguarding respect for Orula, Changó and Yemayá, puts in perspective the assault on the pockets that some spiritualists submit to his clients.
"Cuando Tú Quieras" is another delicious guaguancó where the sonero expresses itself with eloquence. "La Pagarás", is a son montuno biting, an echo of rancor towards an unrequited love. "Formed the Rumbón", in sepia and pure percussion in its first measures, is an exhibition of his vast experience as improviser of the montuno and "Without money" is a story of a dancer who arrives (without money) a room Dance and can not enjoy the party.
Chivirico Dávila's popularity lasted until approximately 1977. He was one of the figures, like La Lupe, Frankie Dante and Meñique, who were left behind with the international boom of the Fania All Stars. Although she only recorded about eight albums as a soloist, her record as a singer of other groups and as a showgirl is impressive, from the early fifties until her last days in 1994 participated singing, making choirs and even composing songs with at least forty different groups.
Family problems took him to New York, where he got a job in a factory. His last foray into music occurred in 1993, during a tour of Colombia with the Conjunto Orlando's four trumpets.

Como fue,
No se decirte como fue
No se explicarme que pasó
Pero de ti me enamoré
Fue una luz
Que iluminó todo mi ser
Tu risa como un manantial
Regó mi vida de inquietud
Fueron tus ojos o tu boca
Fueron tus manos o tu voz
Fue a lo mejor la impaciencia
De tanto esperar
llegada mas no sé
No sé decirte como fue
No se explicarme que pasó
Pero de ti me enamoré
Fueron tus ojos o tu boca
Fueron tus manos o tu voz
Fue a lo mejor la impaciencia
De tanto esperar
Tu llegada más no sé
No sé decirte como fue
No sé explicarme que pasó
Pero de ti me enamoré.
