Hey guys! Lately I've been learning Spanish and of course listening to and translating music is a very helpful activity. So I spiraled down many rabbit holes but found that the 70's prog scene from Argentina does it for me best. Have you guys listened to bands like Crucis and Invisible?

I'm way into Charly Garcia and failing to find documentaries about him in English has lead to me creating my own and I'd really appreciate it if you gave my mini-doc a chance and learn the interesting story of Charly's stab at symphonic prog with his supergroup called La Máquina De Hacer Pájaros.

I think it's a really fascinating short story, with the involvement of a military uprising and a bit of drama, I also added just a snippet of my friends and I covering the song, "Bubulina."

I'd really appreciate it if you guys check it out and let me know in the comments if you're into Prog from South America!

Hi guys! If anyone is interested, my latest video on the history of South American rock/prog is available now.

This time I'm starting a playlist on Luis Alberto Spinetta with his first band, Almendra. Their 1969 album is still regarded as one of the greatest achievements in Rock music from Argentina.
