Piel De Pueblo — Rock De Las Heridas 1972 (Argentina, Hard Rock)

The only album by the Buenos Aires band. Another short-lived project, created by Pajarito Zaguri after the breakup of La Barra De Chocolate. Zaguri died of cancer on April 22, 2013.The band is led by the legendary Pajarito Zaguri, who was a member of 'Los Beatniks' and later 'La Barra De Chocolate.' He reunites with his former bandmate from that group, Nacho Smilari, who had a brief stint with 'Vox Dei' after Juan Carlos Godoy's departure.

The songs fall within the heavy rock tradition of the 70s, with Zaguri's lyrics featuring strong political and social commentary. Standout tracks include the lengthy "La Tierra En 998 Pedazos" (The Earth in 998 Pieces) with excellent guitar and keyboard solos; and the bluesy "Por Tener Un Poco Más" (For Having a Little More) with its unusual electric violin solo.

Nacho Smilari's guitar solos are also noteworthy, especially on the track "Sexo Galáctico" (Galactic Sex). After this album, the band soon dissolved, and Nacho Smilari, along with Carlos Calabró, would form 'Cuero' the following year, 1973. Meanwhile, Willy Pedemonte went on to play electric guitar with 'Miguel Cantilo y Grupo Sur'.

For his part, Pajarito Zaguri reunited with his friend from 'La Cueva', Rocky Rodríguez, and produced the album "Salgan Del Camino" (1973) for Rockal y La Cría. He then recorded a solo single, "El Pampero Libertad/Copado y Colocado" (Talent 3938, 1973), with the help of Alejandro Medina and members of La Pesada.

Back in May 1975, Zaguri recorded some songs with Kubero Díaz, Willy Pedemonte, Topo Dáloisio (ex-Diplodocum Red and Brown), Gastón Cubillas (ex-Grupo Sur) and Guillermo Migoya, which were eventually released on the 1976 LP "Pájaro y La Murga del Rock & Roll" (Parnaso PNE 10096) along with others composed for that album, where Pappo played the organ on "Intentando Los Blues" and also the piano on "El Vago Del Oeste".
