"Esquivando Charcos" is the first record by argentine band La Renga. Until 1991 it was only available in cassette and it wasn't found in music shops, although the live versions of these songs (along with a few other tracks) can be listened in the album Bailando En Una Pata. It was recorded, distributed and produced totally in an independent way by the band. Also, the album was included into a US-only colection called "Clásicos del Rock en Español" without knowledge of the band and with different artwork.
Story behind it:
Since they didn't had a company to produce the album, they decided to do it themselves (record, distribution and production). They made 1000 copies, which were sold them in their concerts. But with the great progress the band made, when they became famous (after to release their fourth album Despedazado por Mil Partes), PolyGram proposed to them to re-release it. After some doubts, they decided that it was a good idea and in 1998 Esquivando Charcos was available in stores.
