'This blast from the past, a 1972 classic from Argentinean bassist, Jorge López Ruiz, is hard, if not impossible to beat with its lush, 70's jazz harmonies intercepting something like an electric Miles Davis set in Buenos Aires. Though the psychedelic quality is undoubtedly present, there is an incredible richness, a remarkable dialogue between Ruiz and his quartet which lifts this disc way above its competitors, whether they be dated from the 1970's or today. All these colors and textures which wind and weave within dreamy layers of guitar, keyboards, bass, and drums are penetrated only (and artistically) by the outspoken if not entrancing cry of the sax. Bliss surely awaits you with 'De Prepo'. This is not to be missed.' ~ further
