Recently I listened to a new live CD by Nexus featuring tracks from the two studio-albums by Crusis, what a joy, a top
notch current Argentine band playing Argentine prog legend Crusis, wow! It inspired me to listen to Crusis their highly
acclaimed second album Los Delirios Del Mariscal (from 1977).The music is partly instrumental and partly with strong Spanish vocals. The emphasis is on the vintage keyboards, from Hammond organ and Solina string-ensemble to a range of synthesizers, and Steinway - and Fender Rhodes piano. The rhythm-section sounds powerful and adventurous. The compositions are strong and dynamic with surprising breaks and the interplay between the electric guitar (lots of wah- wah drenched soli) and varied keyboards is captivating. On their second album the tracks are longer with more soli and a stronger influence from jazz rock, and Dutch prog legend Focus. Highlights are the epic titletrack and Abismo Terrenal, in my opinion the best ever prog from (often overlooked) Latin- America! Highly recommended!
