He wrote many sports articles and then he started writing in a magazine called Novelas de la radio.
Velasco made his mark in the world of the theater when he became the head of the entertainment section of the El heraldo de Mexico newspaper.
Aside from his famous show, he was also an actor on programs such as Medianoche, Domingos espectaculares, Reseña cinematográfica de Acapulco, Confrontación 68 and El tigre.
Despite his bad relationship with Televisa, the popularity of the host influenced many important artists to give him a tribute for his brilliant career, and also for entering Mexican homes for almost 30 years.
It was composed of stories, tales and reflections where the author makes reference to topics of ethics and essential elements of spiritual life.
[3] On September 13, 1969, a new musical variety show came out on television, becoming the most popular and traditional in Mexico: Siempre en Domingo (Always on Sunday).
The show was very criticized for its very low quality, the usage of pre-recorded material, lip sync, and fake musicians.
It is commented that Siempre en Domingo was a "Pay to perform" kind of show so Mr. Velasco would decide whom to present in regards of wealth or connections and not talent.
It is also mentioned in some books that he worked as a contact between "artistas" and many politicians and businessmen who could hire them as escorts for high-profile parties and events, this practice was supported by Televisa to keep the favors of the government and sponsors, and tolerated by the artists due to the exposure that the show represented.
Velasco, the host, encouraged many singers such as Luis Miguel, Chayanne, Ricardo Arjona, Emmanuel, Manuel Mijares, Yuri, Timbiriche, Lynda Thomas, Maná and many others.
Siempre en Domingo had about 420 million television viewers around the world (according to Televisa and their partners) Many singers, choreographers, recording companies and fans found their roots in this TV show.
Some others think that it was an impossible for performers with real talent but no means due to the conservative profile of the show and the will to keep the Status Quo at all costs.
All things come to and end and Siempre en Domingo closed a chapter in musical history of Spanish-speaking nations.
Some years later, in 2003, Marco Antonio Regil planned to direct a new TV show similar to Siempre en Domingo, keeping the "familiar values" and "originality".
