AGAMENON – Todos ríen de mí

Description

Hippie group from Madrid, this is no doubt the most acid psychedelic rock album recorded in Spain in the 70’s. This is their sole album, originally released in 1975 on the Explosion label and a very rare and collectable item. No one knew anything about the group members until now, it had been even rumoured to be some Argentinian guys living in Spain…but no, the group was formed by 2 female and 4 male and the brainhead was Carlos Garcia, who sadly passed away not long ago and to whom this reissue is dedicated.
10 tracks, 8 of them in English and 2 in Spanish, all originals and fantastic; there’s lots of heavy acid fuzz guitar here, probably the wildest fuzz recorded in Spain (”Todos rien de mi”, ”Send me” or ”I need money”), and also some great sunshine psych- pop (”Cuco go fly”, ”Al salir el sol”), and it’s all very well packed with some of the best multi- vocal harmonies you can find in a Spanish record ever. A truely fantastic album that we strongly recommend!!! This first ever reissue comes with an insert with some never- seen- before pictures and infos about the band, plus a repro of a very rare band poster. Dig the cover artwork too!!!
