History
Charly Garcia writes from the piano, and Argentine rock largely runs on decisions he made first. He was classically trained as a child and never lost it: the chord voicings are richer than rock usually bothers with, the arrangements borrow from progressive rock and from the Beatles, and the melodies tend to be stranger than they first sound. He worked through a sequence of bands, Sui Generis, La Maquina de Hacer Pajaros and Seru Giran among them, before the solo records, and each phase changed what local musicians thought was permitted. Under the dictatorship he wrote in code, allegory and wordplay carrying what could not be said directly, and audiences learned to read it. Demoliendo hoteles is the sound of that nerve in a rock and roll shape. No voy en tren keeps a pop surface over an uneasy lyric. Yo no quiero volverme tan loco names the pressure outright. His singing is thin and nasal and completely his own, which is part of why the songs are covered so often and rarely improved.
