TDATS 43 is a collection of Latin American bands. [Editors note: there have now been five Latin rock volumes: 118 (Chicano Rock) 84 (Brazil), 89 (Mexico), 104 (Peru) and 43 (general South America)] One name stands out here, with contributions to the three tracks from Aeroblus, Pappo and Miguel Abuelo. Norberto Napolitano, nick-named Pappo, started playing guitar at the age of ten, and developed a distinctively heavy, aggressive and fuzz-laden style. He became very active in Argentine rock from its beginning and made his name as guitarist of Los Gatos, the first rock band to enter the mainstream charts in Argentina. He continued in music right up until his untimely death in a 2005 motorcycle accident.
Pax, the latin word for Peace, were from Peru, a country that produced a lot of good bands. The others on this comp being Longhonia and Tarkus. Along with Tarkus they played a very heavy proto-metallic style, while Laghonia created some great psych.
Argentina is the most recurrent country here, and Plus were a great Argentine band that produced 3 albums beginning in the late 70s, they had a well-rounded professional sound from the start and the track here has an emotive doomy atmosphere, something which is shared with fellow countrymen Color Humano. There is little information on the few singles produced by Rosario, the artist is reportedly from Mexico and the track here is a frantic slice of psych with some great strangulated fuzz guitar. Piel De Pueblos track offers a cool string-lead motif and their eccentric single album Rock de las heridas is an entertaining listen. Opus Alfa and Climax are two bands from the early 70s which have a great sound from the time that Psych was turning to hard rock and finally I mention El Reloj and M�dulo 1000, two bands who are a treat for any heavy prog fans out there.
