La Banda were quite a sensation and had some of Argentina's too musicians amongst their fans. One of them was Luis Alberto Spinetta , who also joined La Banda on stage on several occasions.

Both Luis Ceravolo and Ricardo Sanz had previously played on one of Spinetta's projects where he was experimenting with jazz - fusion sounds.

💥 Our reissue of La Banda's album is releasing on the 26th of June - we start shipping at the end of this week though so it's a good time to preorder 💥

Due to the silly reel format we've had to crop the photo and only (only!!) and are visible -- however, you can see the full photo in the 8-page booklet that comes with the LP, drummer
and bassist are on it too. They had both played with also, at the peak of his career including the legendary shows at the Olympia in Paris, 1977. What a rhythm section!!

DANCING IS STRICTLY FORBIDDEN! Or not? Tonight is my favourite day of the year for DJing, as it's that special Friday where there's a general TANZVERBOT in German, in memory or he who died at the cross. So, officially , you are not allowed to dance.

We'll celebrate playing tunes with my friend at my favourite μπαράκι -- join us, from 21:00 or so.

It can go two ways: either we take the opportunity to play the undanceable, or we go for the irresistible and check how long it takes you to sin.

Crazy how it's 2026, there's about 300.000 Brazilian records in that online record database that we all built, and yet it's not complete.

I'll be using these undocumented 7"s to replenish the heavily depleted crates of Brazilian goodies that I'll take to the upcoming fair; I'll also do a good deed for record nerdiness and add them to that database, yes. Sharing is caring, right? RIGHT???

Perfect couples #1. A homage to love, in a way. There's some records that just belong together and can't be understood without each other.

This is such a pair. Coraje was the sequel to Bronca, and it was silenced for fifty years. Glad we fixed it and let the courage speak out.
