. yea
Álvarez Guedes is a fervent anti-Castro demonstrator, using every means within his reach to express his political views.
During the early 1960s, he was forced into exile at Miami, Florida. He and his brother helped create Gema Records there. Gema Records was the first company to help launch the international careers of "El Gran Combo", a Puerto Rican Salsa music group. A friendship united Álvarez Guedes with the orchestra's director, Rafael Ithier.
During the 1970s and 1980s, Álvarez Guedes dedicated himself to recording comedy albums and writing comedy books. He routinely expressed his desire for Cuba to return to the way it used to be; such was the occasion when he made one of his famous jokes, involving a TWA flight he supposedly took between Havana and Miami. That route was actually flown by TWA, Pan Am and Cubana before Castro took over.
Álvarez Guedes has written over 20 books, and his albums, alongside with television presentations and Stand up comedy appearances have made him one of the most well liked entertainers, both among the Hispanic public and fellow entertainers alike.
