Compelled by his love for a certain long play, the plastic artist, graphic designer and writer, Fidel Sclavo, organized an in-depth, close-up overview of French poet, playwright and essayist Artaud (who passed away sometime during the mid-20th century) and Artaude (an iconic totem of Argentine popular culture during the last few decades of the 20th century.) Sclavo's drift and particular, freehand-type of prose, finds real treasures (bonds, cross-inspirations, quotes) and delivers a new, foreign, devoid of conventionalisms' look and listen, throughout 37 minutes of rustless "Spinettean" glory.

This second tome of the Social History of British Progressive Rock seeks to answer certain questions. Beginning with the transformation of the Folk Revival into Rock, it continues with the mechanisms that made a certain British-sounding Pop of the mid-sixties, The Beatles included, a force of immeasurable proportions. Along the way, the author rediscovers the forgotten traditions of Music Hall, Street Balladry, Pantomime, and Varieté, as well as the stubborn English urge to cling to whatever would be out of fashion. The book also convokes to a discussion between Modernity and Nostalgia, the terms of which, far from being opposite to one another, conspire to cook up the plot that will eventually weave into the style of posterior Progressive Rock.

In the early nineties, somewhere in the burning Californian desert, a band called Kyuss led a move that originated a new musical genre that combined Heavy Rock and Psychedelia, with high levels of distortion, and which they baptized as "Stoner Rock." Meanwhile, at almost the very same time, in Buenos Aires, a group of musicians formed the band "Los Natas", who took that raw sound as a direct influence. They were the beacon of their generation: They encouraged many others to join this self-generated adventure, becoming one of the most famous groups in Argentina. This book tells how that seed, literally planted in the middle of the desert, flourished and bore fruit in our own territory.

While in an expansively creative mood, he incorporated non-typical sounds to his music: compositional progressive developments, psychedelic and space trips, besides other additions and inventions that possess a very special sound. Generally speaking, this album is an Avant-Garde experience, introducing a very innovative side of Jazz.

“Lo único comparable a escuchar la música de Spinetta es hablar sobre Spinetta”.
The idea that seems to run through each page of Luisito Volume 2 is that the only thing comparable to listening to Spinetta is talking about him. Like a Spinettean alchemist, Kasparian does what’s needed to recover scattered fragments -seemingly connected by an invisible thread- of Luis Alberto Spinetta’s life & works, via statements by a wide range of beings who sometime and somewhere, crossed paths with Luis: in person, by phone, Zoom, or Whatsapp. Who cares?! Only 1 thing matters: talking about Spinetta.

This solo project was created by Mariano Sebastián Rodriguez (aka One), who via the use of different instruments, created a sound that we could pigeonhole as Symphonic Rock with Contemporary elements.

Official biography of the band Arco Iris, formed during the late '60s. It is the product of extensive research conducted by journalist Fabio Scartuchio, who together with the group, compiled in this comprehensively complete publication, the history, photos, testimonies of all members, their music and philosophy (which was extremely new for the time, as was vegetarianism), the practice of yoga, and community life. This pioneering Rock band’s protagonists tell us about their musical beginnings, anecdotes and intimacies of their shows and successes, such as “Mañana Campestre” (1971), which became an anthem for the youth of the seventies, and is considered to be hands down, one of Argentine Rock’s most popular classics.

This book is a substantial introduction for the rebuilding of a criminally neglected chapter within Argentine Rock history. This subgenre generally does not enjoy great relevance in local bibliographies. So, in some way, the authors have intended to shine some visibility on the Symphonic Progressive Rock movement, through 18 representative bands which had big or small impact, but all with great personalities, during the seventies and early eighties’ heyday. Beyond the bands’ individual biographies, the testimonies by some of the main protagonists in each group also stand out.

This band, which was native to the city of Santa Fe, emerged in early 1972 after the dissolution of Alma Pura. By that year already, they had composed the music, as well as written the script and story of their work “Indio”, perhaps the first Rock Opera created in any Argentine province, other than Buenos Aires. Its style was based on “Tommy”, featured Indigenous issues in the lyrics, and had a Progressive Psychedelic sound marked by an organ similar to Procol Harum. Local “La Biblia” by Vox Dei, was a big influence too.

The history of Crucis is just as rich as its music. Since they were very young, the band's members started on a trajectory, which after several years of enduring a perfectioning process, very suddenly enjoyed a place of preponderance. With only two albums to their name, Crucis managed to fill theaters and stadiums, something somewhat unusual within the Argentine Progressive / Symphonic Rock scene. The group's overwhelming, albeit brief journey, boasted a legion of loyal followers. For the writing of this book, the authors interviewed the musicians who were once part of Crucis, picking up quotes from third party interviews, as well as close friends, those responsible for different functions within the band's management, career, and timespans. Data was also sought from the general press and other relevant testimonies to the quartet's story. An arduous field work was carried out to compile all information, articles, publications, period interviews, graphic material, and other elements, all taken from available media. There is also an extensive musical analysis of the lads' entire musical output, numerous photos, posters, and other important references.
