I love the first albums of Azymuth, when their cool and funky Brazilian jazz was mixed with a healthy dose of prog. This one is from their self-titled 1975 debut and it's pure gold. https://open.spotify.com/track/5UgCZ1MuQo07aLG1cQC8CC?si=Q5_EKpptRfOBukFSnGtZAg&context=spotify%3Aalbum%3A1q5loxqHL3JmsQ9zxBTw6f

I'm not usually a big fan of Arcoiris, although Gustavo Santaolalla's band is an Argentinian a pioneer in its folklore/rock/prog fusion... But this is amazing. https://open.spotify.com/track/6b3OYpILmXqdTINjkU9zhj?si=RTJeEy9jTDWOPtH1QCzO2w

I thank my lucky star for leading me to see Shabaka with Esperanza Spalding doing a very intimate show in a small venue in Rio last weekend. Just, wow. https://open.spotify.com/track/3iHDIFbCyQujvZ5584bxKA?si=QiEY5oAGTuudFpmDZVq0fQ&context=spotify%3Aalbum%3A6vIwPo3D1kZ3ZmlR1fyjm7

Heey progheads! I've got some new Brazilian discovery, O Terco. Gutsy rock and roll and quite a bit of prog. This is one the "proggest" tracks in their 1974 album Criaturas da Noite. https://open.spotify.com/track/4nlu0H46ZF6kQuaoUvPTnJ?si=GtXA8qqHRp2dj_OsDWTHJQ

I've shared plenty of Charly Garcia here, but not yet that much of perhaps Argentina's most unique musician. Invisible is Luis Alberto Spinetta's most prog band, and this is the opening track from Durazno Sangrando. Not for the uninitiated! https://open.spotify.com/track/7J5bR4jHqT08ynWK8a6W8W?si=P-NnsMLITy6YrgAl_Dbx8g&context=spotify%3Aalbum%3A4Cf6WflKk1FEtffkm9h1U7

Buenos días, salseros! Domingo de sol en Rio y en breve me voy a la playa escuchando este clasicazo. Teléfono para Gloria Estefan y su pequeño plagio. https://open.spotify.com/track/3GDna1GrUkkjZTaoysolGQ?si=On1qQOWsQL2AAJfhoFpHeA

Speaking of obscure prog bands... SBB is a Polish band I came across years ago. This is from their second album Nowy Horyzont (1975). Love the keyboards! https://open.spotify.com/track/6nyzrRiW6li1EUcZNlHKh9?si=vfTY2SEYQ02a-iaBGG83QA&context=spotify%3Aalbum%3A1VmZdCRzpgVXkQdSnD2wkF

Listen to Dum Chica and the Buenos Aires punk underground. Or don't and miss out, your loss!

Hola Salseros! Hace rato no comparto nada, pero hoy vengo con el vibrafonista más cool del planeta, el señor Cal Tjader. Relajen que ya es viernes! https://open.spotify.com/track/50Kte09CZFFqdvSWwJvydw?si=f9xlLRQFSuy4YyQTqkap3A&context=spotify%3Aalbum%3A6XxDxfs4XBAjRv3dgOSoE2

So, I've just discovered this album and I love. Panal is a Chilean band which released just this one record in 1973. A great mix of Santana-like rock with Andean folkloric music from South America. This track is a traditional Argentinian song, but with clave, percussion and some mad keyboards. https://open.spotify.com/track/2E9EzKSWZavViSwMtcknhm?si=y58wO5bNR7ydRtRQFuVZsA&context=spotify%3Aalbum%3A3UB4M4Ty1bFpDEwh4DtYXj

So, I may be in Brazil but I'm still a proud Argentinian, so here's a track by Seru Giran, another of Charly Garcia's bands. They aren't always prog, but this track is a minimoog-powered, rythmically agressive porg locomotive warning us that the grease of capital cities is intolerable. Being at the beach right now, I think I agree. https://open.spotify.com/track/13dtguSlp2rssEcyxUyZVC?si=bS6BVrB5T6q6IV4eOGPB7g

Hey progheads! After a few days of craziness I'm at my new Brazilian home so here's more Brazilian prog magic. After Rita Lee left the band, Os Mutantes veered towards full-on prog for the album "Tudo foi feito pelo sol". This is a gem from that album. Enjoy! https://open.spotify.com/track/21os8G8uIhTwt0wDmIZ0ty?si=SF1eQy-sQ6a50aBDyY6jCA&context=spotify%3Aalbum%3A6QUDtVBxQZ0JVshVMgwQAP

I found my dad's old cassettes and he was into some hardcore disco madness. This is french drummer Cerrone bringing some lava to your ear holes. https://open.spotify.com/track/59cHgpl2NFSD5PiVGKRUV8?si=-Is6xJ4gSuuFjv79_esAfQ
