Reissue of classic Chilean 70's album housed in gatefold sleeve, with insert and lyrics, story of the band in spanish and english. Includes a poster with the original artwork. Congregacion was one of the legendary bands from the Chilean musical scene of the early 70s. In spite of not having been a popular band like Los Jaivas, Los Blops and Congreso, they deserve a position of privilege in the history of Chilean rock. The group was from Valparaso and led by musician and poet Antonio Smith. They wrote lyrics with a significant political, philosophical and religious content, they were a real "celebration of life". Musically, they crafted ballads in an Andean style with ethnic atmospheres, we could say they made a kind of psychedelic folk with progressive leanings. They recorded just one LP and a single in 1972. In the last decades, the music of "Congregacion" has conquered new folk lovers around the world and the original LP is yet a very rare collector's piece."
