''La Biblia (The Bible)'' is the second studio album by the Argentine rock band Vox Dei,〔Rock.com.ar (''La Biblia'', un disoc de Vox Dei ), editado en 1971 (Spanish)〕 generally regarded as the first Argentinian rock concept album. The album is ranked at #14 in the Argentine version of Rolling Stone's "Los 100 Mejores Discos del Rock Nacional" (The 100 Greatest Records in Argentine Rock). == Background == "La Biblia" is considered by Argentinian rock fans to be Vox Dei's indisputable masterpiece; it has been called "magnificent for both its music and lyrics".〔Vox Dei - La Biblia (The Magic Land Review )〕 Guitarist and vocalist Ricardo Soulé did a terrific job summarizing in just a few lines the most important stories of the Christian ''Holy Book''. Musically the band adopted a hard psychedelic direction, with chiming 12-string guitar and overdriven solos alternating with folky acoustic passages and harmony vocals sometimes reminiscent of The Moody Blues. The Argentinian Archbishop, while at first requesting to review the lyrics, ended up recommending that young people purchase and listen to the album. During the recording sessions, "Yody" Godoy left the band. To promote the album live, guitarist Nacho Smilari (formerly La Barra de Chocolate) joined the band. The album was released earlier than provided, which caused two edition errors, "Apocalípsis" was recorded without voice and "Libros Sapienciales" was identified as "Profecías". It was clarified and corrected in ''La Biblia En Vivo'' in 1987. The songs that remaining in the habitual Vox Dei set-list are "Genesis", "Libros Sapienciales" and "Las Guerras". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「La Biblia (Vox Dei album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
