CRISALIDA

Without a question "Crisalida" is one of my personal favourite progressive rock albums from the 70's South American scene. "Espiritu" blends the melodic romanticism of 70's Italian prog scene with a strong Southern cultural influence. This album is filled with plenty of warm melodic synth runs and electric and acoustic guitar pharasing. Mood and tempo change very frequently with sudden shifts to heavy electric guitar and back into softer symphoinia. Vocals are also plentiful with some great expressionism and vocal harmonization throughout. Lovers of 70's prog will love this album to death. Recommended album!
