‘Almendra - En Obras’ kicks the album off with a blast of pure pop energy. seven years ago, Spinetta briefly lived up to their terrific name, with an insanely addictive hit single called “Rutas Argentinas”. I am not a real Latin music type of person, but i have to admit ‘Almendra - En Obras’ really is amazing. Oh yes, this album gets Array out of Array
If you are a Spinetta fan, you will love Rutas Argentinas. Spinetta breathes new life into the music in Muchacha (Ojos De Papel). Color Humano is probably the highlight of the album. There is exquisite mix of music in Hilando Fino. This song may be the most meaningful. Spinetta emotions are reflected through Jaguar Herido. Vamos A Ajustar Las Cuentas Al Cielo is one of the best records ever. Figuracion as a highlight of Almendra - En Obras contains a ton of exquisite melodies. First time I heard Cambiandome El Futuro was on radio driving in my car and sonically it just sounded amazing.I have all of Spinetta’s tracks and Plegaria Para Un Nilo Dormido is probably the most his introspective effort. Simple and heartfelt closing track Ana No Duerme closes Almendra - En Obras on a high note. A unique and uplifting song.
