If we took into account creative the musical quality as as much interpretative, as well as the scenic projection and the special typical charisma of a rock group, it would be necessary to describe to the Ritual of Tijuana Baja California, like the best group of Mexican rock for all.This title,is well crafted progressive/psych bluesy rock with nice organ, some Tull like flute here and there, nice guitars, with softer and harder rock/prog/bluesrock passages, sometimes with rather hard rock vocals, and a few times Uriah Heep-lkind of vocal harmonies, with lyrics in English. The fourth track, "Satanas" is more experimental, theatrical track mixed with bluesy rock, and a long drum solo, a song about being the devil. "Muerto E Ido" has a slight Canterbury touch.This deserves to be heard by all prog/psych collectors.
