Más Pappo vía Polonia nos trae Bob. Recuerdo los recitales, todos cantando:

Nadando en una ciénaga de macadam,
no quiero estar tranquilo ni quiero paz,
ideas a mi mente sacudirán bang bang...
3...2...1...0...
3...2...1...0...
3...2...1...0...
No se bien lo que quiero pero quiero más,
no se bien lo que vimos pero vimos más,
metales importantes nos reflejarán bang bang...
3...2...1...0...
3...2...1...0...
3...2...1...0...
Ya no hay U.R.S.S. ni U.S.A.,
sólo hay ángeles sucios por acá,
ya no miro hacia atrás para ver dónde estás,
qué me importa saber si soy uno más.

Je je je, gracias Bob, muchos me han pedido material de Pappo para compartir, y mientras yo actualmente no tengo nada de él, aparece estos materiales desde el lugar menos pensado. Acá tienen, para quien guste, más Riff con comentarios de nuestro polaco Pappo's fan:

The sophomore album by the Argentine hard rock/metal band Riff, is considered another little classic by the connoisseurship, though for some reason I find it a bit inferior to their debut in my book.
Anyways "Macadam 3.2.1.0...", released in 1981, still contains every thing that made of their first LP something fun to listen to: the Riff's futuristic-dystopian imagery of the leather and the chain, a la "Mad Max", that's the heavy metal-material which fills some tracks here (Macadam 3210, La dama del lago, Ultra velocidad) and there is some rock attitude in "Días buenos y malos hay" or Vitico's "No pasa nada en esta ciudad" (that bass!)...all them more than good tracks, for sure.
Hardly some of the 8 tracks contained here can get boring: sweating feverishly their black t-shirts & leather, the 4 villains: Pappo, Vitico, Héctor "Boff" Serafine and Michel Peyronel, just give here everything an old-fashioned metalhead could need: a punked heavy rock tinged with "metallic fantasy" and antisocial violence, unfortunately some time after, the fans took these aesthetic postulates a bit too seriously, and the violence during the gigs obliged the band to call it quits momentarily.
There is herein a sort of melodic metal cut, graced with philosophical lyrics, "Debo seguir buscando", which is like a rarity in the Riff's rough catalog, and a slower, 6-minute Pappo's song, "¿Que es un tulipán?", obscure, groovy and featuring fantastic lyrics about desolate lands.
The band members can be seen on the back cover looking fashionable 1981 black leather & chains a la carte, futuristic sunglasses and roguish gestures, pretty much a reaction to a repressive society as the Argentine society of the time was.
Perhaps the weak song of these 38 minutes is "Profanador de tumbas", sort of baroque metal cut penned by Pappo, with lyrics by a Dario Rossi (no idea who is)...the music is fine heavy rock with a groovy, doom-like bass ala Black Sabbath, but the goofy lyrics spoil it considerably.
Nonetheless "Macadam 3.2.1.0..." is an all-time classic by this impressive band Riff was.
