The Rooster from Sinaloa

               Chalino Sanchez is a man of his word. His real name is Rosalino Sanchez Felix. His nickname was El Pelavacas. He was born in August 30, 1960 and passed on in May 16, 1992. Chalino was raised in Las Flechas, Baridaguato, Sinaloa, Mexico and died in Culiacan, Sinaloa, Mexico. At some point, he had to escape mexican authorities because his sister was raped by "el mafioso", that lived near by the house. Chalino reacted on killing him, so what he did was immigrating to California.
                 He began working in the fields where he began profiting money from this job and other jobs. Later on, Chalino's sister introduced him to Marisela Vallejos Felix which gave birth to his two children, Adan Sanchez Vallejos and Cynthia Sanchez Vallejos.
                 One day, Chalino met Angel Parra who was interested in Chalino's music talents. He arranged a meeting Sanchez and recorded various corridos which later on got a big hit. He then was popular in the Mexican American culture.
                 Chalino was known for the "Rey de los Corridos" ( King of Corridos). But one morning, everything changed completely. He was being transported in a Chevy Suburban where a Federal Police Car told them to pull over. Approximately, 6:00 a.m.
                Chalino was found dead in the side of the road with two gunshots in his head. He will always be remembered in our hearts and our music. R.I.P Chalino.
