about

Last copies found of this long out of print debut album by Planeta Imaginario.

Out of nowhere in 2004, arrived Planeta Imaginario, a band that seemed to not be aware of the last 25 years of music before entering the studio. Lucky us. Sounding every bit like a second generation Canterbury band from the late 1970s, Planeta Imaginario absorbed and filtered the best parts out of Soft Machine and Nucleus. The 8 piece band - including 2 sax players, trumpet, trombone, Hammond Organ, Rhodes electric piano and the usual rock band plus guests on flute and percussion - created a most beautiful album from a most beautiful form of melodic jazz rock (Canterbury). And the amplified guitar recalls the greats from the 70s past. I also love the horn charts, well composed and played. It's hard not to think of National Health while listening to this fine debut. (Third Millennium)

"The first thing that will strike you is how big a part the wind instruments are playing. There are saxophones, a trumpet and a trombone, next to the rock instruments of guitar, bass, keyboards and drums. Especially the brass instruments add a flair of big band music, but in a charming way. The guitar on the other hand comes with a very Latin feel at times, not unlike some of the stuff Carlos Santana and John McLaughlin did together in the early seventies. The keyboards offer a wide range of sounds, from psychedelic organ to warm electric piano. All of this is being held together by the rhythm section. The songs are entirely instrumental, often running longer than six minutes, giving us a seamless three quarter of an hour of lush music. The overall impression is of later Canterbury bands, like Gilgamesh and maybe also Nucleus. Like those bands, Planeta Imaginario are sometimes wild and unpredictable, but even more often laid back and contemplative. Considering that this is a nearly twenty-year-old recording, and a debut album at that, the production values, while not on par with today’s standards, are still fine and come with a certain lo-fi charm that gives even more authenticity to the music. Fans of Canterbury prog who don’t mind the strong use of wind instruments should be delighted by ¿Qué me dices?." (Pascal Thiel, Disagreement)
