Este es uno de los CDS mas solicitados de Guillermo y es uno que muestra muy bien su capacidad de compositor.
En el, Guillermo experimenta y fusiona ritmos Garífunas con estilos mas conocidos del caribe. âCosta y Calorâ, el tema que da nombre al disco, es una de sus canciones mas emblemáticas. Interpretada solo a voz y guitarra, la canción es una descripción muy poética del paisaje caribeño de Honduras.âPor Esa Negraâ una canción con mucho sentido del humor acerca del amor no correspondido de un pescador se convirtió en una de las canciones de Guillermo que mas ha difundido la radio hondureña.
