They also were among very few trios to achieve fame outside of Mexico. Guitarists Enrique Quezada Reyes (b. July 15, 1920) and Gustavo Prado Gutierrez (b. March 25, 1923), along with lead singer Saulo Sedano Chavira (b. July 25, 1925) were signed by RCA in 1949 and earned their first hits soon after, including "Cuando Me Vaya" and "Te Quiero, Dijiste." By the 1950s the group was an international hit, aided by their worldwide tours which included stops in Europe and Japan. The band continued to perform and record well into the '90s. ~ Stacia Proefrock, All Music Guide [-] Hide

Los Tres Ases had its start in 1953 as the house musicians for La Bandida bordello in Mexico City. The three members, singer Marco Antonio Muņiz and guitarists Juan Neri and Hector González, chose their name at random out of an urn where suggested names had been written on slips of paper, then placed inside. They were eventually signed to RCA by Mariano Rivera Conde and had hits from the start, including "Mi Ultimo Fracaso," "Deliro," "Estoy Perdido," "La Puerta," and "Contigo a la Distancia." They began touring internationally in the mid-'50s, and were named the Best Trio in Mexico in 1955 and 1956. In 1959, Muņiz and Neri left, while González tried to keep the band going with a series of replacement musicians, but never managed to match the success of the original trio. ~ Stacia Proefrock, All Music Guide [-] Hide
