Desarma Y Sangra - Cover de Serú Girán

Adaptación a Guitarra. Pequeño homenaje a Charly García.

Fue ayer, pero igual... Feliz Cumple Charly! 🖤🎶

[riddlesrhymes]

Hi hello! I am your fabled ✨secret rocker santa✨, or maybe one of them if you happen to have two, haha. Though, you may refer to me as 🏳️‍🌈 because that’s more simple.

Anyways, tell me about yourself! What are your interests? Do you have any favorite bands? I think I might know one, but I’m not sure /silly

Omg hi !! Thank you 🏳️‍🌈 I'm so excited for the secret Santa thing lol thank you for asking, my interests in the past months have been:

-ornithology

-horses

-cowboys/gauchos

-poetry

-music!

Mainly music but I've been enjoying ornithology a lot too.

My favorite bands/artists are Emerson Lake and Palmer (obv), King Crimson, Serú Girán, Todd Rundgren, Steely Dan, Electric Light Orchesta, George Harrison, Burt Bacharach and The Nice!

At least this past year, those have been my faves. Tho I'm completely obssesed since June with ELP heh

[mellotronmkll]

I keep thinking about that morrissey tweet whenever I listen to charly garcía like oh yeah no the only thing I could ever really get into was the first three sui generis albums + adiós sui generis, porsuigieco, both la máquina de hacer pájaros albums, everything he did with serú girán, like at least 5 or 6 of his solo albums and a bunch of songs he wrote with/for other artists. But that's it. Can't give him more than....150 all time classics. Maybe more

Check out our playlist from last night's show on @kcsbfm featuring lots of great artists, like Los Demonios de Corocochay, who recorded with the Peruvian label MAG. MAG was founded by Manuel Antonio Guerrero in Lima. He was an engineer who started out running a small shop selling toys and imported records. Seeing how popular the records were, in 1953 he decided to start his own label so he could record Peruvian artists. MAG became one of the top labels in Peru, known for their high quality recordings in all genres. 💿🎶 *Perfecta de la Martinique "La divinité" [MARTINIQUE] *Mestre Cupijó e Seu Ritmo "Pra Dança Meu Siria" [BRAZIL] *Les Shleu Shleu "Sept jours de la semaine" [HAITI] *Los Demonios de Corocochay "Amandita" [PERU] *Makgona Tsohle Band "Marabi Blues" [SOUTH AFRICA] *Moacir Santos "Amphibious" [BRAZIL] *Carmen Rivero Y Su Conjunto "Cartagena (feat.

pictured above: Charly García and Gustavo Cerati. [1]

Rock en español is a topic I’m pretty passionate about, and also something that I feel like has not received a lot of attention in the anglophone world. There is a lot of complexity to this topic--easily enough to fill an entire book. However, I’m going to try to break down the basics for anyone looking to get their feet wet with some new Spanish-language music, as well as try to provide a bit of historical context. 

Since there is no way I can cover everything in one post, there will be a certain amount of bias towards music I personally think is significant--but I will try to cover music that is typically considered universally known or important. We’re starting with Argentina, because of their massive influence on the genre in general.

1. La Balsa, Los Gatos (1967). A “balsa” is a raft, and the theme of this song is, essentially, a generation “shipwrecking” itself. This is the song credited with really starting Argentina’s rock nacional, selling 250,000 copies, inspiring the name for a band (”Los Náufragos”), and becoming an iconic reflection of the youth counterculture of the time. What’s important to understand about this song is that this is the era of the Vietnam War, of Cold War tensions, and of a desire to break with tradition, particularly in regards to sexual relationships & gender roles. Under Juan Carlos Onganía (president 1966-1970), long hair in men and “immodest” clothing for women was particularly targeted (you can read more about that here). The original lyrics started off with “estoy muy solo triste acá en este mundo de mierda” but were later replaced with “estoy muy solo triste acá en este mundo abandonado” [2]. Musically, their first album has a very Beach-Boys vibe to me, but more melancholy. 

*For a song that speaks pretty openly about the feelings of this time period, try listening to Rebelde (1966) by Los Beatniks.  

The next biggest players to show up in the 1960s and ‘70s are “El Flaco” Louis Alberto Spinetta (1950-2012), and Charly García (1951-Present).  

2. Muchacha (ojos de papel), Almendra (1969) & Bajan, Pescado Rabioso (1973) are the songs I am choosing to highlight. Spinetta has had quite a few bands over the years, but to me his most impactful projects were the album Almendra I and Artaud. Spinetta is known for his very poetic songs, and sort of spiritual, otherworldly sound. Artaud in particular is very surreal, psychedelic, Pink Floyd-esque. This was the era of Operation Condor and a lot of senseless violence and social change, and many feel that Spinetta’s nod to the writer Antonin Artaud (and his “theater of cruelty”) is a sort of reflection of the Zeitgeist of the time. It does not feel to me like an overtly political album, but more introspective and melancholy. Regardless, both are considered classics. Personally I’m particularly fond of the song  Que el Viento Borró tus Manos. 

3. Charly García - García is credited for nearly 50 albums so far in his career, and so summarizing his impact is a bit of a challenge! Starting off with his involvement in the band Sui Generis (Latin: “of its own kind” i.e., unique) during the years 1969-1975, I want to mention the songs Botas Locas and Canción para mi muerte, which describe his experience in the army after being drafted. García more or less faked insanity and health problems to get kicked out of the military, as he considered the service unethical (and has been known for his somewhat erratic behavior his entire life) [3]. Some of his songs were censored, and he later became known for writing subversive songs that could escape censorship, famously Los Dinosaurios--the implication here being that certain politicians were “dinosaurs” who would one day disappear. During his Serú Girán era (1978-1982), he wrote some really interesting songs like José Mercado, which speaks directly to the increase in consumer goods available in the ‘80s, and one of my favorite songs, Viernes, 3am, which is a beautiful, haunting song about suicide. During his career as a soloist, his style has varied tremendously, but I would be remiss to not mention the album Clics Modernos (1983), which is where I feel like people should start when getting into this tremendously influential artist. 

*Pappo and Manal are also extremely influential during this time. 

What happens in the 1980s is a complete explosion of rock en español and the first time it is really shown to be commercially viable and exportable on a large scale. And a lot of that is due to the influence of Soda Stereo. 

4. Soda Stereo & Gustavo Cerati. I need to explain that even despite the success and influence of bands in the ‘60s and ‘70s, that rock music in Spanish was still somewhat seen as of “lesser quality” than the British Invasion bands, and that many Latin Americans listened to music in English, regardless of whether or not they understood the lyrics. However, something happened in 1982: Argentina went to war with the United Kingdom (Falklands War). During this time, English language music was actually banned from being played on the radio, and for the first time, Spanish-language bands got enough airtime to really compete and gain a following [5]. In 1983, Argentina elected Raúl Alfonsín, effectively ending the military dictatorship. Soda actually released their first album in 1984, capitalizing on and quickly dominating this emerging market for Spanish-language rock. Soda is remembered for more of a pop-rock sound and for creating great hooks, as well as for creating a massive fan base--take a look at this version of Nada Personal from 1987 and the size of the crowd--this is a real turning point for rock en español. These bands spread to the rest of Latin America and inspired the conception of many more.  

Soda had 7 studio albums and numerous hits. The songs everyone knows are Persiana Americana, De Música Ligera, Nada Personal, and En la Ciudad de la Furia. Many people remember them for their danceable rhythms and frivolous lyrics, but I think that’s oversimplifying them a bit too much. They are typically seen as apolitical but they are not entirely--their first album features a fun song, Diatético, which is ostensibly about dieting--and contains the shouts El regimen se acabó! Se acabó! -- a clever pun on the Spanish word for diet (regimen) and (military) regime. What Soda does in their first albums is essentially “celebrate” this newfound freedom with feel-good, romantic, “fun” music, which in a way was inaccessible during the dictatorship, and a sharp contrast to the more melancholy music of the ‘60s and 70s. However some of their later albums have very different feels, and Dynamo (1992) in particular still stands out to me as a very progressive, unique album. 

Cerati went on to produce five solo albums before his death in 2014, the most essential of which is undoubtedly Bocanada (1999). This is a beautiful, complex album that (in my mind, anyway) has no rivals. And I am not the only one who thinks so [6]!     

In the 1990s and 2000s, rock en español in Argentina (and everywhere else) begins to multiply and take on a number of sub-genres (punk, alternative, indie, grunge...). 

I don’t have the space to explore all of these artists, but I will mention a few that are popular. Personally I am fond of Bersuit Vergarabat, who are difficult to classify genre-wise, but try the song Sencillamente. Los Piojos are quite popular, and everyone knows El Matador by Los Fabulosos Cadillacs. Babasónicos is also very well known, and I do love Carism��tico. 

5. Fito Páez. Páez is the last artist I will mention here, and has achieved pretty significant popularity in the ‘90s and 2000s. He’s won five Latin Grammys, and to me is more pop than rock, but everyone loves 11 y 6 (1985) and Mariposa Teknicolor (1994). Cerati, Páez, and García did some collaborative work in the late ‘90s, which is actually pretty cool. 

Okay, I think that’s enough for an introduction. There’s a lot more music out there to be explored, but this should give you guys a good basis. Let me know if you end up liking these artists! Music has been an incredibly helpful way to learn both languages and history for me, and I think you’ll find the same. Suerte!

On our show yesterday we highlighted some favorite rock 🎸🎶 selections from Africa & Latin America: twist, prog, psychedelic & even some baladas ro(ck)mánticas 😍 cuz we have lots of feelings. One song was a 1967 track by Mexican rockers Los Profetas. One of their members was Abraham Laboriel, who went on to become a legendary bass player. As a session musician he has been featured on thousands of recordings with artists like Stevie Wonder, Madonna, Elton John, Dolly Parton, & Michael Jackson. Laboriel's parents were Garifuna immigrants from Honduras, and his siblings Johnny, Ela, & Fanny were also topping the rock charts in the 60s with their own bands (Los Rebeldes del Rock, Fanny y Sus Lollipops) and solo projects. Catch a recording of our show at the link in our bio! *Los Memphis "El Cielo Esta En Tu Mente" [VENEZUELA] *La Fe Perdida "Escaleras de Tu Mente" [VENEZUELA] *Vox Dei "Canción Para Una Mujer (Que No Está)" [ARGENTINA] *Serú Girán "Lo Que Dice La Lluvia" [ARGENTINA] *Mamo Lagbema "Love Music And Dance" [BURKINA FASO] *Afro Soul System "Tint Tank" [BURKINA FASO] *Renato & Seus Blue Caps "Ford se Bigode" [BRAZIL] *Wanderléa Com Renato E Seus Blue Caps "Não = Juventud Twist" [BRAZIL] *Los Angeles Negros "Murio la Flor" [CHILE] *Los Angeles Negros "A Tu Recuerdo" [CHILE] *Los Profetas "A donde irás" [MEXICO] *Os Mutantes "Top Top" [BRAZIL] *Gilberto Gil "Back in Bahia" [BRAZIL] *Los Jaivas "Todos juntos" [CHILE] *Les Vikings "Lola Lola" [MADAGASCAR] *Psiglo "Vuela a mi galaxia" [URUGUAY] *Grupo Ro-Ar "Naci Para Quererte" [HONDURAS] *Modulo 5 "Si quieres tú" [GUATEMALA] *Abeti "Mama" [DRC] *Amanaz "History of man" [ZAMBIA] *Rita Lee & Tutti Frutti "Que Loucura" [BRAZIL] 📷: Album cover of Los Profetas (from discogs); photo of Abraham Laboriel (from wynguitars.com); photo of Los Profetas (from Youtube) #abrahamlaboriel #losprofetas #rockmexicano #musichistory #communityradio #kcsb (at KCSB-FM 91.9 in Santa Barbara) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPcDNjOgmD9/?utm_medium=tumblr
