Following the earlier publication of the offer came a visitor to this space to provide, from faraway Sweden, with another volume of the saga EXPLOSIVE: Volume XI. Unfortunately, as I said earlier, Volume XII, on that occasion is shared with you is unique in that series, part of my vinyl stock at the time. Then start the meeting by thanking Pedro Lazo, Stockholm-based compatriot, for their invaluable and selfless contribution, which will undoubtedly enrich the intent of this blog and the pursuit of memories of many people who have visited and known of these sounds that beautiful time ...
This volume, also edit the RCA Victor, was published in 1971, and comprises a total of 13 songs, with a repertoire that continues the trend of the other LP compilations, ie mix between language interpreters and Hispanic whites.
One of them is the Galician-born singer Andres Do Barro, who appears on this LP with the song "San Anton". This man was born there in 1947 in the town of Ferrol, near La Coruna in Spain, had to be a couple of albums in the early seventies it became the first pop singer Galician succeed in radio English of that time. The first, "My name is Andres Do Barro Lapique" in 1970, the song originally contained a part of this explosive. The feature that made famous this artist was not necessarily his career level of music, but rather the enormous contribution he made to the dissemination and enrichment of Galician culture, at a time which was a Galician dialect of Castilian and even in Galicia was seen as a language, just wanted to his music was music of Galicia, it was a bit of all Galicia, although the atmosphere of the Franco dictadira expujaba to the contrary. Thus is recorded when the cover of their first album writes: "My name is Andrew and I Gallego, a Galician who knew it bothered her to be said because it showed. A note I, too, and I'm proud. I love my northern land, green and distant, primitive and forgotten, fertile mother of men who have been planting their lives in lands of Spain, Portugal, Latin ... In Galicia, Galicia present and far away and "Saudosa" have influenced my music, have been writing the simple notes of my songs. Your praise and your criticism will be the important part of this work we have done "... died suddenly in 1989, following an illness, some say in his own homeland, others in Madrid ... Explosive
Also in the eleventh volume is the song "Like a heat wave," played on this LP by the Argentine group "The Lynx". This song was part of the first single from the group, originally published in 1965, moving to become musical theme of a radio program well known and famous, "The Fontana Show", hosted by the top conductor of the time in Argentina, Cacho Fontana. Also greatly helped the issue was made known the fact that it was the music of a beer commercial, pretty duifundido radio and television of the time ... What of them today? Not much you can get about it except that I have read out there who still do some shows in the country, recalling their greatest hits of the era of the seventies ...
Side B ends with an excerpt from a recording of the national comic, which became very famous in the country of that time, soon after their performances at the Festival of Viña del Mar. I mean Edmundo "Moustache" Arrocet ... I can say about him, only took a matter of Nino Bravo and derechizó as wanted on the stage of the Quinta Vergara 1974, full start of the military dictatorship ... In any case, the recording that contains this LP is their first presentation, alluding to the many "Washington Carrasco" we see in our streets ... He currently lives in Spain, continues to act as a comedian and making some movies in the same line, but not the greatest relevance to many was his image in Chile in the seventies.
