Cuauhtemoc Aguila Solar. 1987 Pentagrama
Tribu have a lot more albums than this, in fact Discogs shows 14 of them. Finding any info about Tribu has proven to be a challenge. The album featured here is the only one I've known about for years, and remains the only one I've heard. Tribu collaborated quite a bit with Jorge Reyes during this period.
Sometimes the album is known as Fusion Etno-Rock as it's stated that way on the cover, but that was to inform the buyer of the style of music. Cuauhtemoc Aguila Solar is a fusion of pre-Hispanic indigenous tribal music and modern day rock. Most of it is the former, but there are some supreme examples of the latter, with wonderful fuzzed out guitars and synth soloing. On these pieces, I'm most reminded of the Arco Iris album I recently listed, as well as Lula Cortes & Ze Remalho's Paebiru album.
Priority: 3
