Born Francisco Repilado near Santiago in 1907, Segundo took his first name from a slang term for “pal,” which fit his exuberant personality. The singer/guitarist, always sporting his trademark Panama hat, spun a career that spanned parts of nine decades. A pre-revolution legend in Cuba, Segundo inked numerous compositions and invented his own instrument, a variation on the guitar and tres, a native Cuban instrument. Due to U.S./Cuba travel and trade embargo, Segundo’s name was virtually unknown in the United States, and for a brief time he took up work as a cigar roller, before he was rediscovered by Ry Cooder, who compiled the Buena Vista Social Club album.
