José Capmany (15 July 1961 – 13 October 2001) was a Costa Rican songwriter and guitarist.
Songs like "El Barco", "La Historia Salvaje" (which contains a sample of Gloria from Them but with more hard rock and in the lyrics the complete lyric from the popular kid song "Los Pollitos" combined with the chorus).
"La Modelo" and "Mamá y Papá" are considered folk rock music in Costa Rica.
[4] Many musicians have said they found him a source of inspiration, and most of his songs have been sung by other people as a form of tribute.
"Volando alto/La historia salvaje" is a double disc, one with his old hits and other with unreleased songs that were completed by his bandmates.
