BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (AP) — Carlos Gardel’s fans used to gather at the curb outside his home in the 1930s, hoping to hear one of Argentina’s greatest tango singers practice a tune before a show.
Now, they can gather inside to hear him again.
Visitors to the remodeled “Carlos Gardel Museum Home” at his former house in the Argentine capital can see black-and-white images of key moments in the career of the singer who gave tango a huge boost worldwide.
And the voice is on tap as well. Visitors can hear any of his 893 recordings through headphones installed there.
