This first volume kicks off with the analysis of a couple of seminal records, which were released during the iconic 1967 "Summer of Love": "Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band", by The Beatles and "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn", by Pink Floyd. The multiple transformations that Progressive Rock endured all the way until its' final decay and loss of influence, started with the transitioning years from Prog to Psychedelia (1967 / 1968). Through three extensive essays, the book approaches the stories behind some of the most important and definitive bands of the Progressive genre: Yes, Pink Floyd and Emerson, Lake and Palmer.

On the afternoon of May 24, 1976, Argentine foursome Invisible entered the local CBS studios, located on Paraguay Street #1500 in downtown Buenos Aires, to record their third long player. By the end of that year, the group would cease to exist. If Invisible is perhaps the most valued band in Spinetta's career, "El jardín de los presentes" is the culminating point of a brief but intense discography work. In eight songs (many of them became local scene stalwart classics), Spinetta condenses a part of his cosmogony and lays the foundations for his immediate future as a solo artist, as well as fronting Spinetta Jade. Martín Graziano reconstructs with remarkable journalistic and music-loving expertise all the episodes that went through the gestation and impact of the appearance of this record at the end of 1976. A tiny but definitive period of time during which Luis Alberto Spinetta, Carlos Machi Rufino, Héctor Pomo Lorenzo, and Tomás Gubistch recorded a key album in the history of Argentine Popular Music from the last half century.

The leader of the renowned Argentine band Tanger has decided to go adventuring on his own with this, his very first solo outing ever and which was conceived and produced entirely in his own home studio. Faithfully and loyally sticking to his own musical motivational guns, he once again submerges himself into the Crimsonian sub-world. It is now replaced by the sonic presence of additional guitars and keyboards.

Virgem commenced its musical career path back in mid-1972 in the Argentine province of Santa Fé, as the group was rehearsing for the presentation of a lengthy Rock Opera, the lyrics and music of which were the authorship of two of the band's founding members: Horacio Bidarra & Miguel Bertolino. After many years of delays, the project finally came to light and the resulting album was released as a 2 CDs work consisting of 36 songs, 10 characters, 4 choirs, and the performances of 11 singers.

This quartet amalgamates different tendencies and sonorities under the Progressive Rock and Psychedelic concept. Vocally speaking, the lads come close to Pez, as well as instrumental passages with recognizable influences from The Mars Volta and King Crimson, besides their own Experimental touches and other sonic elements they have subconciously picked up on the way.

With a totally unpredictable and unstructured style, this guitar, violin and drums threesome recorded this, their second disc. They were accompanied in its making by Chamber instruments, which contribute to the general sense of organized harmonic chaos. They wander through 60's & 70's soundtracks mixed with Crimsonian noises, and the rawness of Eastern European Punk Rock. A very peculiar combo.

Catukuá was created by Carolina Restuccia, the vocalist with Factor Burzaco. This here is their first album outing, and brings together a series of eclectic and very personal songs during which her voice plays a commanding role through a distinctive and expressive vocal range, relatively close in style, colour and tone to the voices of Deborah Perry (Thinking Plague) or Bjork.

This was a typical Argentine Folk-Rock threesome, in a similar sonic vein to Sui Generis, Vivencia and Pacífico, and which had a very ephemeral existence. The announced release of their first album was truncated due to their record label going bankrupt. Thankfully, one of the trio's members kept a copy of that recording on a cassette!! Here then is the long-overdue CD launch of the group's first album, which also includes bonus live performances from its' period.

Between May and September of 2012 Rubens Vitale (Donvi) was interviewed by renowned Argentine Music Journalist Pablo Arias, with whom he shared the ideas which animated and impacted all of his existence as a political leader, trade unionist, point of reference in Argentina for the self-management of musical production, and professor. His project is to pour all of these experiences in a book aimed at the youth. Unfortunately he wasn't able to bring it to a conclusion, as he sadly passed away on October 27. Donvi was an excellent exhibitor, as well as a vast creator of ideas, and possessed a very particular method which combined timings, spaces, and collection of topics, that somehow all finally converged and combined together to flow into a central proposal.

With the incorporation of an additional keyboards player to the band, Ünder Linden intensifies the search for different nuances and overtones, as well as increasing the dialogue between its members' respective instruments. This inevitably creates a much more Symphonic atmosphere in the group's melodies. "Espacios intermedios" is the lads' second studio effort, and also presents a more in-depth quest for rhythmic variations in each composition featured on this album.
