1950
Don Agustín Bardi
Salgán's own tribute to the composer Agustín Bardi, witty and idea-packed with his bubbling upbeat 'umpa umpa' accompaniment.
Recuerdo
Salgán's debut record, a Pugliese composition; the famous bandoneón variation from the trio section is played on the piano, in the middle of the tango.
1951
Vida Mía
A rare vocal number from Salgán's 'musician's orchestra'; previously a well-known Pugliese recording with singer Jorge Vidal.

Un disco aún sin identificar
An instrumental previously well known from a Di Sarli recording ten years earlier (1941); played to compare the two orchestras' treatment of the same piece.

La Tablada
Compared directly to Troilo's version (a dialogue between bandoneon and piano); Salgan turns the same riff into jazz-like improvisation.
Pobre Colombina
Horacio Deval
A 1927 carnival tango (originally sung by Gardel) about Columbine, the Commedia dell'Arte character.
Las Mirlas
Angel Diaz
Billed as a waltz but revealed by the hosts to actually be a Colombian bambuco converted into waltz form; sparked chat debate, with one listener calling it 'just nuts.'
1952
Los mareados
Salgán's own instrumental take on a song the show had already played in its Tango 1942 episode as a Troilo/Fiorentino vocal recording.
Ya lo ves
Roberto Goyeneche
One of Goyeneche's very first recordings, well before he became known as a reciting, speak-singing "diseur" of Argentine song.

Ilusión de mi vida
A vals most listeners won't know, originally composed and recorded by Feliciano Brunelli in 1949; Michael calls Salgán's piano playing "goosebump material."
1953
Un momento
Roberto Goyeneche
Salgán on the small Te-Ka label with the young Goyeneche; Lavocah calls the lyric one of the most beautiful and important in the canon.
Margarita Gauthier
Roberto Goyeneche
A different take on a song linked to Caló and Berón; not dance music but 'the tango version of jazz'.
1954
A fuego lento
After-party: an innovative and influential composition by Salgán, a musician's musician with little following among dancers.
Por el camino
Roberto Goyeneche
After-party: a waltz whose last 30 seconds goes completely off the rails; Goyeneche was learning to accompany a wild orchestra before finding fame with Troilo.
1955
Sus Ojos Se Cerraron
Roberto Goyeneche
A Gardel composition, played to note that Gardel himself recorded it in March 1935, months before his fatal plane crash, and that Goyeneche's phrasing here is still early.
1960
El pago de Ricardo
A duo of Salgán on piano and Ubaldo De Lío on electric guitar: the electric guitar is new to tango, and fewer musicians are cheaper.

Año desconocido
Don Agustín Bardi
An instrumental tribute to composer Agustín Bardi, picked to represent the new, more complex 'musician's band' sound that began before 1950.
