Space-Age Melody Maker Esquivel Dies
Lounge music composer was 83.
Juan Garcia Esquivel, the '60s lounge music composer who became a belated
hero for a community of '90s post-angst alternative irony buffs, died at
his home in Jiutepac, Morelos, Mexico on January 3. He was 83.
The musician had been bedridden with a back injury for nearly 10 years.
Three months ago he suffered a stroke that left him unable to speak and
caused paralysis in one-half of his body. He had a second stroke on
December 30 that led to his death.
