4. JACKY DE ARROYO Y SU LEYENDA "En Barranquilla es “vox populi” que el disco “La Fundillo Loco” supuestamente fue dedicada a Mary, yo personalmente no se si eso sea cierto,
5. El ocaso de un ídolo 2005 En Barranquilla la separación de la pareja no ha pasado inadvertida, ni mucho menos el desconsuelo de Joe. Aunque él lo niega, muchos creen que le dedicó la canción La fundillo loco: "Ay mi madre cómo duele tanto, cómo una mujer que uno quiso tanto lo deja en la vida y queda uno loco, pero fíjate que ya pasó. Y me importó poco". En una columna de El Heraldo, su amigo Ernesto Mcausland le reclamó diciéndole: "Un hombre tan inteligente como Álvaro José Arroyo González? debió suponer que a la canción la iban a vincular con su accidentado divorcio, máxime cuando se trata de un artista cuya genialidad e impacto han radicado en su talento para la canción autobiográfica".
