For all the tango enthusiasts - Carlos Gardel's creative legacy - has been a steady source of inspiration - in spite - of his early death in 1935 - in his private plane crash - while he toured the South America; the crash also killed his orchestral arranger - another Tango great - Alfredo Le Pera.
Gardel appeared in several Argentinian movies as well as composing several popular Tangos - "El Dia Que Me Quierras" - "The Day in which You Loved Me"; another famous Tango composed by him is - "Me Buenos Aires Querido" - "My Beloved Buenos Aires".
The love which he had for the "Portenios" - the inhabitants of Argentinian port/the capital of Argentina - the port city of Buenos Aires - was fully reciprocated by them. Upon his untimely death - they erected a big statue of him at the main cemetery of the city and there is a constant, lit cigarette - at the hand of the statute - thus immortalizing him and his Tango work.
