In the feverish activity during six decades of the twentieth century, Lucho Bermúdez got to compose 1000 songs, many of them recorded on 80 long play records. He dedicated his 'Porro Carmen de Bolívar' to his hometown, which turned into an anthem in the voice of his wife, Matilde Díaz. His group, "Orquesta de Lucho Bermúdez", went all over Colombia (his native country), first as a group of important radio stations and then as an invited orchestra to clubs, hotels, grills, carnivals and fairs.
