Formed in the early 70s after the break-up of two or three previous bands, this outfit was possibly the only Uruguayan rock band to enjoy, sort of speak, a brief ''stardom status''.
From the beginning they had a very defined scenic presence and a progressive hard-rock approach.
With an above average production level, their albums are indisputable strong, supported by the Keith Emerson/Jon Lord type keyboards and the incisive Deep Purple guitar style. However, it is Gonzalo Farrugia's ultra speedy and effective drumming that gives the band its unique sound.
Idols in their time, their works were supported by both the public and the press in a firm way.
Songs such as "Siénteme", "En un lugar un niño" and especially "Vuela a mi Galaxia" (all included on their great first album) were regularly played on radio and TV. The military coup found the group at its peak of popularity, being one of the few rock bands that continued working for a while. The live acts continued with full houses, but the magic sort of drifted away. (The Magic Land)

COVER AND RECORD IN EXCELLENT CONDITION!
