His first big hit was the single La nave del olvido which became an instant success in Latin America and Mexico. He then recorded his second album called La Nave Del Olvido. His big break occurred on the 25th of March, 1970, when he was chosen to sing in an international music festival to represent Mexico. The festival was called II Festival de la Cancion Latina. His outstanding performance of the single El Triste cast tears in the eyes of the audience and he got a standing ovation. He stood third place in the festival. After that, he became a star in Mexico and his romantic ballad style music mixed with his unique voice became immensely popular.
