Espiritu - Libre Y Natural 1976 (Argentina, Symphonic Prog)


The second (and probably best) album in the discography of the band. After participating in several groups, beat-guitarist Osvaldo Favrot created in 1968, a trio with drummer and bassist Diego Fraschetti Daniel Bernareggi. In the same year the group became a lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist Fernando Bergé. Group called Onda Corta (Short Wave). Group has taken under his wing company EMI, which released two LP-compilation of various groups (including this one). But then there was a break in the history of the group associated with service in the army. In 1973 the group was reborn (in the new line-up and called Espíritu - "Soul") and under the auspices of Microfón Argentina SRL has released the first single. In 1975, the LP was released Crisálida (chrysalis - pupa of insects) (in the spirit of Yes and Genesis), is excellent, I must say the album. In 1976, the album was released Libre Y Natural (Free and Natural - free and wild). The authors of the album material - Osvaldo Favrot and Fernando Bergé. Music is in the style of the era Yes Relayer, or the era of King Crimson Red. Vocal - Spanish. In May 1976, this composition Espíritu collapsed. Keyboardist Ciro Fogliatta joined the group Polifemo. Bergé, Favrot and Claudio Martínez created a group of Aspid. But in 1982, Osvaldo Favrot and Fernando Bergé revived "Soul" (Espíritu).
