Crucis - Los Delirios del Mariscal. 1976 Argentina


Another one of those albums I've owned since the 1980s, but didn't really have a grasp on the music. I've always liked this title, but I came close to a +2 listen recently, only pulling back to +1 at the end. A strong mix of the classic Argentine symphonic progressive rock sound with Spanish vocals - and absolutely lethal fusion tendencies. A rare combination and it's the former that I had somehow missed in my recollection.


Ownership: 1988 RCA (Japan). Single sleeve. Acquired in a collection buy (1997). This replaced the Argentina reissue, which was my introduction to the album (1988).

CD: 1995 Record Runner (Brazil). Known as Kronologia, this CD includes both their albums. I'll for sure keep this even though I have the debut on LP as well. First division music for me.


1988; 1997; 2/15/23 (LP 4.8); 4/13/23 (new entry)
