Para Hacer Musica on CD

Digitally re-mastered edition of this 1971 album from former El Syndikato member Miguel Livichich. Even though Miguel y el Comité worked as a proper band in their structure, Miguel Livichich made all decisions concerning the group. This album fused the local candombe rhythm with beat music in an unusual and aggressive (oft-times funky, break-beat) way. Miguel y el Comité played mostly original songs, but they also mixed in covers of tracks by other Uruguayan bands. They were the first to sing hits by other groups (El Kinto, Los Shakers), which added a new dimension to the burgeoning Uruguayan scene. Percussion plays a key role in the band's sound, although the guitar playing is most distinctive: sometimes melodic, at other times carving a path through the mix, with a hard and acid distorted fuzz guitar sound. Comes with a 28-page booklet with band history, photos, and bi-lingual lyrics.
