      Pescado Rabioso (rabid fish) are an Argentine heavy rock band... Working backwards I now have their debut, and if anything it is even better than its successor. 'Blues De Cris' is a powerful opener, with passionate vocals and fine guitar riffing. The extended 'El Jardinero' is a slower affair, with the guitar delivering some nice fills, and then letting rip on a searing solo. 'Algo Flota En La Laguna' brings back the heavy riffing for the highlight of side two, with 'Serpiente' finishing off the album with some extended keyboard soloing. Featuring some of Luis A Spinetta's best guitar-work, this album has long been regarded as one of the best to come from the country... Well worth the risk if you want to sample some top rate South American psyche. - Peter Jolly review

      After Almendra's break up and the release of a solo album, Luis Alberto Spinetta started a new band: Pescado Rabioso, which was presented to the press in October 1971, even before naming it so.
      To record their first album, "Desatromentandonos" (1972), Carlos Cutaia se had joined as keyboard player and David Lebon had replaced Bocon. It is one of the bands of the movie "Hasta que se ponga el sol" (1972), directed by Anibal Uset... - VIAJERO INMOVIL Records

      Luis Alberto Spinetta (born January 23, 1950), is an Argentine musician. He is one of the most influential rock musicians of Latin America, and together with Charly Garcia is considered the father of Argentine rock. He was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in the residential neighbourhood of Belgrano. Since he was a kid he listened to all kinds of music: folklore and tango, and a little bit later, rock. As with almost every other rocker of his generation, The Beatles would change his life. In 1967, in the midst of a repressive political climate, he formed a band called Almendra with school mates.
      Contrasting with the backwards and authoritarian government of General Juan Carlos Ongania, Argentina and specially Buenos Aires were undergoing a cultural blossoming, based on new art expressions; the new generation, the sons of the middle class, was immersed in an effervescence that would not reappear in Argentina until 1983. Spinetta was part and later an exponent of that blossoming and rebellious youth that would express itself both through the arms and the arts. Spinetta devoted fully to the latter path, although he briefly became involved with left-wing political movements.
      It was 1969 and his band, Almendra, recorded their first album. The band started recording and playing intensely and it became successful almost overnight. Almendra composed its own songs and the lyrics were in Spanish (something radically new). The subtlety and beauty of their sound would be one of the milestones (maybe the first) of Argentine rock. After two albums that enjoyed radio diffusion and deserved fame, the band split. Spinetta composed and recorded a new solo album, but an inadequate environment (he would later say that the mood of Argentine rock and rockers of those times were too "heavy" and negative for him) and the vast changes that success effected on his life made him leave the country.
      After a lengthy stay in Europe, he returned to Argentina and formed a new band: Pescado Rabioso. It was destined to be as mythical as Almendra. With a far more powerful sound and expressing the tension in the streets of an increasingly violent Argentina, Pescado recorded its first album in 1972. It was both a continuation of the creative stream of Spinetta and a drastic change in the style of his music and lyrics. The band recorded a second album; although a third one carried its name, Pescado was by then dissolved; Artaud, recorded in 1973 and mostly a solo album by Spinetta, was a major breakthrough. Partly based on the writings of Antonin Artaud, Spinetta exorcised many of the demons of his past in this album. This process would open the door to a new era in his music.
      In 1974 he formed a new band, Invisible. With his new band he recorded three albums; Invisible I, Durazno Sangrando (together with Artaud, hailed as his best album ever), and El Jardin De Los Presentes... - Wikipedia
