Oft overlooked band from the mid 70's, they are a perfect combination of Weather Report ethnofusion thanks in large part to Eduardo Del Barrio' keyboards, and the percussion ensemble of Mike Baiano Azevedo, Carlos Vega, Hector Andrade, Steve Barrios Jr. Ray Armando, and Return to Forever for the contributions of guitar Maestro Jorge Strunz, who has a sizzling technique on both acoustic and electric guitar. Not to be overlooked is sax/flautist - Steve Tavaglione, who rates as one of the tastiest and fiery players these ears have ever heard. This is an extremely talented band, and was given the best accomodations for their creativy by the record labels of the day.
A solid recording both performance, compostionally and recording quality.Finally re-released on cd with remastering in 2011.
