La Máquina de Hacer Pájaros was a mid 1970s progressive and symphonic rock band from Argentina. In spite of its very short lifespan (2 years), it was a successful group musically during that period, but did not achieve mainstream popularity.

[edit] History

Members:

  • Charly García - keyboards & voice
  • Gustavo Bazterrica - guitar
  • José Luis Fernández - bass
  • Oscar Moro - drums
  • Carlos Cutaia - keyboards

Their self-titled debut in 1976 (the name meaning "Bird making machine") sounded as a pleasant blend of sixties rock, jazzrock, classic and symphonic rock. The compositions were drenched in the progrock tradition but had a strong typical South-American atmosphere featuring latin and soul music elements.[1] Their second and final album, 1977's Películas leaned more towards jazz and some experimentation. The opening track "Obertura 777" is one of the most recognizable argentine instrumental rock songs.
