Songs like "El Barco", "Louisiana Historia Salvaje" (which contains a sample of Gloria from Them but with more hard rock and in the lyrics the complete lyric from the popular kid song "Los Pollitos" combined with the chorus). "Louisiana Modelo" and "Mamá y Papá" are considered folk rock music in Costa Rica.
He died in a car accident on October 13th, 2001.
