This is a late seventies recording made by the members of Alma y Vida, which at that stage presented a couple of changes in their original line-up. By then, they were decidedly tilted towards a more Jazz Rock inclination, with variations in their wide-ranged rhythm base (from Funk & Soul, to Latin touches). Most of the tracks on this CD are Instrumental, with a few Spanish-sung exceptions. The good news is that, in spite of the name change, it is still that same old magic and roots of the great, mythical Alma y Vida.

Yodi Godoy was an initial member of Vox Dei, when he participated in the recording sessions of "La Biblia" back in 1970. Over four decades later, he has re-recorded this classic cornerstone of Argentine Rock, with his own personal vision and spin. This new version includes two movements which were absent from the original album, as they were never recorded to begin with back then. With Floydian atmospherics galore and Church Choirs, this interpretation is quite a remarkable and creative departure from the first one.

Within the framework of celebrating 50 years since the "official" beginning of Argentine Rock, Hilda Lizarazu, the ex-singer of Man Ray, proposes the challenge of making new versions that refer to the birth of our Rock. These songs, which were originally released between 1968 and 1973, receive the treatment of being respected along their own styles, with the complicity of Lito Vitale, Eduardo Tapia, Juan Belvis, and Luciano Vitale, among others.

Without a shadow of a doubt, Jorge López Ruíz is one of the founding fathers and giants of the Argentine Jazz scene. His second album introduces us to Contemporary Jazz, emulating references of such elevated musical stature as Miles Davies, Thelonious Monk and John Coltrane. With a style inspired by Post-Bop and Cool, he innovated in Argentine latitudes by incorporating his own imprint of local tints.

Originally released way back in 1961, this was the debut album by Jorge López Ruiz (a true pioneer in the Contemporary Argentine Jazz movement) and consisted of a blend of standards and original material where Be-Bop and Cool Jazz influences clearly stood out, though at the same time, Jorge’s music contained a certain condiment of stylistic spicing via which a distinctive Latin flavour predominated throughout these recordings.

This album is the successor to "Emboscada", an EP of rarities launched back in 2006. In this brand new release, the band succeeds in balancing their trademark sound together with compositions which stylistically range from Blues, Alternative Country, and Psychobilly, to the Space Rock and Psychedelic sonic features that they have endeavoured to maintain from previous their recordings.

More than 40 years have gone by since this historic Beat group was formed. This reunion recording was cut live in concert on June 23, 2007 at the Plaza San Martin, city of Rosario (province of Santa Fe, Argentina). Incidentally, that is exactly where the band first came together all those years ago.

This was the debut album by one of the very first Argentine Beat groups. The band, which was led by Litto Nebbia, is also considered to be one of the true pioneers of Argentine Rock, as they began (albeit somewhat innocently and timidly) to delineate their own language within the country's Rock genre.

After a long recess of many months and with personnel changes in its line-up, Los Gatos returned with an emblematic album, which possessed the duality of a melodic vein contributed by Litto Nebbia and a more rocking one supplied by Pappo.

This was the band's last official album, and for many, the group's best. Decidedly inserted into firm Rock territory, this iconic record would go on to mark the future musical course and tapestry for many other bands which surfaced at that moment, as well as many yet to come.
