The name of musical group Timbiriche was inspired by a table game known in the United States as Dots and Boxes. The idea of naming the musical group comes in response to the Spanish children's musical group Parchís. Timbiriche was created by Victor Hugo O'Farril, Luis de Llano Macedo and María Eugenia "La Gorda" Galindo. Rubio began her singing career Timbiriche made its official debut on 30 April 1982 on the Mexican television show "Siempre en Domingo", featuring Spanish singer Miguel Bosé as its godfather. The original band had seven members: Alix Bauer, Benny Ibarra, Diego Schoening, Mariana Garza, Paulina Rubio, Sasha Sökol, and Erik Rubín (who joined a year later). After the success of his first homonymous albums, "Timbiriche" and "La Banda Timbiriche", both from 1982, the following year he released a live album that led the group to recognition throughout Latin America. "En Concierto" was also a hit with hits covers by Anglo-Saxon artists, including "Mickey" by Toni Basil that the group reinterpreted in Spanish dedicated especially to Miguel Bosé as a way of thanking him for his sponsorship.
