After the break up of Piel de Pueblo, outstanding guitarist Nacho Smilari and drummer Carlos Calabró joined Masllorens (ex-La Joven Guardia) and formed Cuero. <br />The debut album was a hard rock effort lead by Nacho’s brilliant guitar. The instrumental "Tiempo después", "Nuevamente el momento", "No sé si voy a enloquecer", the blues "Escucha mi voz", and the long psycho "Paula acurrucada en un color" are the remarkable tunes. This is a recommended album for those who like Piel de Pueblo, Montes, Rockal y la Cría and Pappo’s Blues. <br />Cuero soon split after Smilari’s departure to the USA. But later Nacho returned and the group recorded a very good album with the help of excellent musicians such as Bernardo Baraj (ex-Alma y Vida) on sax and flute, Osvaldo López (ex Los In) on drums, Adalberto Cevasco on bass, Raúl Parentella on electric piano and Joe Coco on percussion. <br />This second LP is almost Latin jazz-rock instrumental music with good guitar playing. It is obvious that his trip to the USA had influenced him quite a bit. <br />Both records went unnoticed (specially the second one) and had never been reissued on any format. The first one is harder to get. <br /> <br />Credits <br />Bass, Vocals – Enrique Masllorens* <br />Drums – Carlos Calabro* <br />Guitar, Vocals, Piano – Nacho Smilari <br /> <br />http://crotchbat.blogspot.co.il/2007/08/cuero-tiempo-despues-argentina-1973.html
