1976 Space jazz-folk masterpiece infused with prog scents from one of the true legends of Argentinian music, latin rock pioneer Litto Nebbia. First vinyl reissue, including a facsimile version of the 32-page booklet that accompanied the original 1976 release, and remastered sound !

Floating electric piano, acoustic guitar, female choirs and moog sounds combine with Litto’s own voice and create a unique blend of delicate beauty. The use of analogue synthesizers in this conceptual album was a turn in Nebbia’s work at the time. A long 7-minute suite opens the album, mixing acoustic textures with synth sounds, setting the grounds for the entire LP. Songs of introspective darkness alternate with other tracks influenced by sunny bossanova, musical passages fueled with epic energy where the voice of Mirtha Defilpo accompanies Nebbia along with the intricate and enveloping instrumental work driven by Daniel Homer’s guitars and Litto Nebbia’s keyboards. The album draws a complex soundscape made up of an almost infinite number of musical pieces, rich in layers and textures, that – decades after its original release – still stands out for their modernity. Bazar de los Milagros is undoubtedly one of the most advanced recordings of those that appeared in Latin America at the end of the 70s. Includes the song ‘La Caída’, as recently sampled on Jay Electronica/Jay Z’s hip-hop hit ‘The Neverending Story’. Bazar de los Milagros has also been listed on Japanese DJ and music expert Chee Shimizu’s Obscure Sound guidebook, a must for record collectors.
