Musical Career
In the 1970s, Rivera had such hits as Jesucristo Mi Viejo (My Old Man), and Vecino, Dame la Mano (Neighbor, Give me Your Hand). Another of his hits at those times was "Mi Pueblo" (My People). This song went so deep into the hearts of "His People" that a group of youngsters at the San Juan Airport sung "Mi Pueblo" to him on one of his arrivals from Venezuela. Rivera also recorded "Tu vives en mi pensamiento", together with composer Eladio Torres which became one of the most popular of its genre.
