Slowly, we will get all metallic spots on this planet earth covered. ^^
The La Fabrica "Suenos" 7" 82 deserves a mention too imo as well as Ali Baba's Group "Moscu" 7" 81.

That's the plan 8)
...so, anyone else who feels up to the task of documenting their country's early Metal history? Hosting, developing & editing = free! You'll never find a better offer!

LA FABRICA sounded like straight-up 70's prog/soft-rock w/ the odd hr riff to me, and ABG - see start of thread. They seem to have been more of a novelty-project (just a Motörhead cover).

I agree with everyone that this is a great project, very helpful and informative.

I also agree with Prowler that maybe some more borderline stuff should be included, at least in the form of short notes or "marginalia". It would be helpful both to traditional metal fans who prefer more melodic side of the genre like me, since we would also be interested in this stuff, and to those leaning towards more "extreme" genres, as it would help them avoid that kind of stuff.

Well, the B-side of La Fabrica is a Carlos Santana cover version, so you can't really count that as one of their regular songs imo. But "Suenos" is a prime example of raw Prog/Hard Rock:

If Tarkus was added (they are just 70's Hard Rock too and "Suenos" sounds much heavier than them), then La Fabrica just for logical reasons has to be featured too.

As for Ali Baba's Group, both songs on the 7" are cover versions, but the "Ace of spades" (they sing in english despite the spanish title) cover sounds like Motörhead without Lemmy. It's (punky) Heavy Metal nevertheless...

Hielo, early 80s rock band from peru with Doble A (VTR). They later became the rock/ska band JAS.

Arena Hash, maybe the most popular pop rock band from peru.

Nah, I didn't even took back the hard disk from the computer centre.... I won't ever find enough money to repair it plus it's not said it could be repaired and&or all files can be rescued and named properly.... so, I just passed and went away...
