This sole single by Tickets has become a highly sought-after collector\u2019s item over the years. In addition to its undeniable quality\u2014it ranks among the finest psychedelic pop records with hard-rock touches recorded in Spain at the time\u2014the record is sought after both by heavy-rock completists and by admirers of the Spanish pop duo Vainica Doble.<\/p>\n
Tickets were none other than the first incarnation of the legendary band Asfalto. What\u2019s more, it was Tickets who provided the musical backing for Vainica Doble on the first single released by Carmen Santonja and Gloria Van Aerssen. It is therefore no coincidence that Side A of this Tickets single, \u2018El rigor de las desdichas,\u2019 was composed by Vainica Doble themselves. Both records were released in 1970 and sold only modestly. In Tickets\u2019 case, this marked the end of their discography under that name, paving the way for a new chapter that would turn them into one of the defining hard-rock bands in Spain: Asfalto.<\/p>\n
