El Amor - En Vivo (1971 mexico, heavy psych/acid rock, 2006 shadoks edition - MP3 320k and FLAC)

Rock band formed in the late 60's, first as "Los Pajaros", and led by Miguel Cardenas. The band was originally from Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, and participated the Youth Festival which was conducted the March 13, 1970 in that city, after receiving outstanding reviews from critics, they decided to try their luck in Mexico City, where they recorded their first LP, which included covers of popular songs at that time.

The group renamed as "El Amor" in August 1971 and appear in the popular in a TV show on Sunday in which it was not common invite rock bands. "El Vivo" is their second album, released 1971. The band really crank it up here, with loads of wigged-out fuzz guitar heavily featured on six lengthy tracks of high energy acid rock.

Review in spanish by Rubber Soul Chat
El grupo regiomontano el Amor, fue uno de los grupos mas aclamados en el Festival de Avandaro de 1971, especialmente por su archireconocida rola "I Love you More", pero el grupo en su primer album de estudio, se estaba llendo hacia el Pop y el Beat (incluyendo refritos de los Beatles y Badfinger), pero en vivo, demostraron que eso no era lo suyo, sino el Heavy Psych a lo Black Sabbath o Blue Cheer, aqui puedes encontrar una gama de sonidos psicodelicos con mucho Fuzz en el bajo y la guitarra, asi que si esperabas a los Beatles mexicanos, olvidate de eso, pero si en cambio te gustan tambien bandas como Sir Lord Baltimore, Blue Cheer o Black Sabbath, entonces te lo recomiendo, es un discazo al nivel de esos grandes del Heavy Psych.
