Argentinian Prog

Bubu will probably steal this one.

I know most people won't know at least half of these great albums.

Hopefully, this poll can help fix that.

I'm casting my vote to an amazing AMAZING album, which I believe won't get so much love: Bauer's "Astronauta Olvidado"

Btw, I'm currently listening to Bubu's 2nd full length release after 40 years and it sounds GREAT

Man, this is a hard list to choose from; so many great bands/artists on the list, and fantastic albums too. I'll go with "La Maquina de Hacer Pajaros" for very personal reasons, but I find them all excellent.

Bubu is great but i love M.I.A. just a tad bit more

Nexus metanoia, followed by Pablo el enterrador

Maybe I'm just having a bad day.  I just found myself unable to vote in a poll about prog from Finland due to the absence of any of the RIO/Avant bands that I prefer.  Now, I'm confronted with a poll about prog from Argentina and find only 1 band with the great Charly Garcia.  OK, so La Máquina de Hacer Pájaros gets my vote.  But what about Sui Generis (Pequeñas anécdotas sobre las instituciones is about as Canterbury as it gets) or Seru Giran?  Even if most of his solo work is (great) rock/pop, La Hija de la Lágrima and the soundtrack to  Lo que Vendrá (God, I wish I could get that movie on DVD) are clearly prog.  Absent La Máquina, I would have been happy voting for the Bubu or the Arco Iris.

Not the biggest Charly García fan here. I can appreciate La Máquina, and out of all Garcia's projects, La Maquina is arguably the proggiest one. That's the reason why they're here.

Apart from La Máquina, I also like a couple of Serú Girán albums.

From his solo efforts, Piano Bar is the one I enjoy the most.

And I definitely can't stand Sui Géneris.

I don't know most of these so I feel guilty casting a vote but that debut FACTOR BURZACO album has always and still blows me away.

I only know Alas, Mia, Crucis, Bubu

^ I don't know any of those bands/albums, except for Bubu by reputation (and did check out the album once or twice on YouTube, though I haven't got to buying it), and ideed I expected Bubu to take it.
