Although "La Pesada del Rock and Roll" existed only between 1970-1974, its open band policy made it essential to help add to the growth of Rock in Argentina, not only because of the participation of Pappo, Luis Alberto Spinetta and the members of Manal (even though they had already split by then), but for what he represented ideologically with his "in-your-face" attitude of confronting authoritarianism during unstable political moments of the country, with repression and censorship carried out by de facto military governments, as well as the "democratically"-elected government of Juan Domingo Perón, which, when he died while still in office, continued in the same autocratic and brutal vein by his evil minister Jose López Rega, creator of the repressive Triple A paramilitary secret police cell.

Former bass guitarist with Sui Generis, Alejandro decided to re-release this collection of tracks written and cut during the mid-seventies. His style has a very personal Folk Rock flavour and is not too dissimilar to the sounds of his former bandmates, and to the produce of equally legendary fellow-Argentines, Vivencia.

Originally hailing from the Pacific coastal city of Valparaiso, Chile, this is a Power Progressive Instrumental Trio. The chaps have a decidedly marked inclination towards Jazz Rock Fusion, which includes plenty of Latin American rhythmic influences, as well as even affording Rock riffs through impecabbly-sounding clean guitars, which in actual fact are the group's principle characteristic.

Los Xawks were a bunch of friends who met during the early years of high school. Soon after, they decided to form a band and play Rock music. It is by no means this chronicle's objective to become a history manual of the nineteen sixties, but to recount how the outfit's members developed during those heady days. Our goal is to show how they thought, what they did and the outcome of their recorded works: the songs, starting with all the ones that were recorded for the legendary Argentine Mandioca label, as well as those which as yet remain unreleased.

La historia de Crucis es tan rica como su música. Desde muy jóvenes, los integrantes de la banda iniciaron una trayectoria que, tras varios años de perfeccionamiento, alcanzó de repente un lugar de preponderancia. Con sólo dos discos a su haber, Crucis logró llenar teatros y estadios, algo poco habitual dentro de la escena del Rock Progresivo/Sinfónico argentino. El recorrido arrollador, aunque breve, del grupo contó con una legión de fieles seguidores. Para la redacción de este libro, los autores entrevistaron a los músicos que alguna vez formaron parte de Crucis, recogiendo citas de entrevistas a terceros, así como a amigos cercanos, responsables de distintas funciones dentro del management, la carrera y la temporalidad de la banda. También se buscaron datos de la prensa general y otros testimonios relevantes a la historia del cuarteto. Se realizó un arduo trabajo de campo para recopilar toda la información, artículos, publicaciones, entrevistas de época, material gráfico y otros elementos, todos extraídos de los medios disponibles. También hay un extenso análisis musical de toda la producción musical de los muchachos, numerosas fotografías, carteles y otras referencias importantes.

When everything was nothing, the beginning was nothing. The history of Argentine Rock wasn’t born from nothing. Though it exists thanks to Rock & Roll, Jazz and Blues, it would not be the same without Tango or local Folk Music. With a prelude by Miguel Grimberg, this initiatory book tells the history of music on this continent, beginning with the African slaves’ arrival in 1500, their syncretism with European and native cultures, all the way until the first formative years of Argentine Rock, offering the necessary information to motivate the reading of the "Rock de Acá" Book Collection.

Nevertheless, the trio's guitarist Nacho Smilari returned with a new line-up, besides an absolute about-face in terms of Cuero's sound. This second album offering is almost exclusively Instrumental, based on Jazz Rock and Afro Beat, with a certain similitude with legendary fellow-Argentine band Arco Iris.

This Instrumental quartet was formed back in 1979 in the city of Rosario (province of Santa Fé, Argentina). After a brief lapse during their first incarnation in the eighties, the band got back together again in the year 2000, and finally unveiled their very first album in 2004. The group sticks out especially because of their twin lead guitars, which provide a melodic type of sound consisting of sophisticated, Jazz-orientated cadences within a sonic structure that is primordially centered in Progressive Hard Rock, and with evident influences by the likes of such referential luminaries as Rush, Yes, Led Zeppelin, Jeff Beck, and Crucis.

Without necessarily departing from his own style of fusing Jazz and Rock, together with several other influences, maybe this brand new work has an even more Jazz-oriented persperctive in the composition-structuring department.

From the Melody Maker, The Wire, Spin, and Rolling Stone columns, as well as in all the books that he published, Simon Reynolds set himself to deconstruct Pop Music's discourse by submitting it to an ideological dissection, which had nevertheless not impeded him from abandoning his mundane pleasures. The language suspension of Noise, the oceanic-mystic regressions of Acid Rock, the preponderance of the timbre/chromatism/texture triad over and above the melody and the message in Post-Rock and Electronic Music, represent a Psychedelic continuum which traverses the history of Pop Music.

Originally from Campinas, Sao Paulo (Brazil), this sixsome decided to enter a recording studio for the first time, and came up with something sounding really fantastic. The album is clearly derivative of Classic Progressive Rock icons (as well as current trends of the genre), and also blends in passages of a more Hard Rock inclination. Sung entirely in English.
