Tito Fargo (ex-Sumo y Redonditos de Ricota) en Concierto Benéfico y Solidario

Posted on by

Todos lo llaman Tito Fargo, pero su nombre real es Héctor D’ Aviero. Es el único músico que fue parte de la historia de dos de las bandas argentinas que definieron al rock como lo conocemos hoy en la región: Los Redondos, y Sumo.

Produjo los dos discos que le abrieron las puertas al estrellato a No Te Va Gustar en Argentina: “Aunque Cueste Ver El Sol”, y “Todo Es Tan Inflamable”. Produce a la Orquesta Típica Fernández Fierro. Es miembro fundador de Gran Martell, con Jorge Araujo (ex–Divididos). Integra la banda de rock stoner Ararat, junto a Sergio Chotsourian, de Los Natas.

En Europa, fue músico soporte en vivo de Héroes del Silencio, y de la viuda de Bob Marley, Rita Marley. También en Europa, fue parte de Los Carnavales de Franco junto a Roberto Pettinato, publicó un disco con Baobads, y colaboró con Soular Tribe.

Y ésta semana, llega a Uruguay a presentar su proyecto solista, y a brindar una clínica de guitarra. Todo esto en un marco benéfico y solidario, dentro de la quinta edición de la Campaña del Juguete. Continue reading →

"Closer" Compiles Together Sarah Mc Lachlan's Greatest Hits Up To The Year 2008

This one took a little to sink in, and it didn’t sink in completely. But the bits that managed to do it are ones I now treasure indeed. Sarah Mclachlan is a Canadian artist that began her career in 1988 with the album “Touch”, in which her trademark mixture of folk and pop was already fully manifested. That record included the hit single “Vox”, and that is the one song which starts this 16-track compilation which was first issued in 2008.

I think I don’t have to tell you it is one of the tracks that I truly treasure from it. The other two that I deem as exemplary songs are “Possession” and “Building A Mystery”. Both were quite successful in terms of chart performance – “Building A Mystery” topped the Canadian charts and almost hit the top 10 in the US. For its part, “Possession” garnered a lot of publicity since it dealt with a famous stalker that even filed a lawsuit against McLachlan – he was to eventually commit suicide before the trial started.

Some might find it startling that songs dealing with such negative realities turn out to be such compelling listens – just look at Elvis Costello’s “High Fidelity” or The Police’s “Every Breath You Take”. But when songs like that are successful, I don’t think that means people are “evil”– quite the opposite. It just showcases that “normal” people are naturally attracted to what happens on the other side. The more people who are keen on songs like these, then, the more representative sample we have of people’s saneness. Continue reading →
