Psych-folk prog album by one of the most legendary bands of the early 1970s Chilean music scene, that was released at the worst possible time. In spite of not having been a popular band like Los Jaivas, Los Blops and Congreso, they deserve a position of privilege in the history of Chilean rock.<\/p>\n
Congregaci\u00f3n, led by musician and poet Antonio Smith, was from Valparaiso. They wrote lyrics with a significant political, philosophical and religious content, they were a real \u201ccelebration of life\u201d. Musically, they crafted songs in an Andean style with ethnic atmosphere, we could say they made a kind of psychedelic folk with progressive leanings. They recorded just one LP and a single in 1972.<\/p>\n
The group was disbanded in 1973 following Pinochet\u2019s coup. Their multi-layered music is rich in unexpected nature textures and sounds, emphasizing the deep spiritual and mystic vibe of the album. It features the collaboration of members of Los Jaivas and Amerindios.<\/p>\n
The music of Congregaci\u00f3n has conquered new folk lovers around the world and the original LP is yet a very rare collector\u2019s piece.<\/p>\n
First official reissue with remastered sound from the original master tapes, including a bonus 7\u201d single with non-album tracks from 1972.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
