The debut album from Argentinian prog-rock band Orion's Beethoven, originally released in 1973. Sax solos, hard rock, and a whirling 12-minute piece. Includes a live bonus track. "It is an unfortunate reality with many groups from Argentina that, although they may have spent several years developing their own sound, they rarely have a chance to demonstrate the results in the recording studio. The end result: the fame of some of these bands has only very slowly spread abroad to the general world of record collectors and fans of underground music. This is certainly the case with Orion's Beethoven, loosely described as a 'symphonic psychedelic group,' primarily, it seems, because of the way that they worked classical music themes (fragments from 'Schubert's Symphony No. 8' in B minor, for example) into a psychedelic wah-wah guitar shaped world of their own making. They only recorded two albums, both for Polydor, under this name and these with a massive gap of four years, and one million light years of style, between them." --from the liner notes.
