Luis Alberto Spinetta’s music combines songwriting with an unusually rich world of images. For Spanish learners, the pleasure is not always a literal translation; it can be hearing how language and music create a mood together.
Context for the Recording
His projects included Almendra, Pescado Rabioso, Invisible, Spinetta Jade and Los Socios del Desierto, alongside solo work. Muchacha (ojos de papel), associated with Almendra, is one starting point; other recordings reveal different instrumentation and musical settings.
