El Flaco Dany y Mercedes 'Mecha' Espinel

El Flaco Dany

He is one of the last of the Old School tango dancers. The legendary Gavito was his friend. Those who have ever been to Buenos Aires, have seen him in one of the traditional milongas -- always well dressed and charming. It's his Milonga con Traspie, that he is famous for. There is no reknown festival, that he has not shown his art at. With unbelievable lightness and speed he improvises true pyrotechnics of foot work.
