Bocanada (Puff) is the second solo album by Argentine rock musician Gustavo Cerati, considered by the critics and fans to be a masterpiece of his career and his best album.[1] This is Cerati's first album release after the breakup of Soda Stereo, although he had been working with Plan V and Ocio, two bands oriented towards electronic music. Raíz was the album's first cut played in radio stations, and Puente was the first music video to be released. "Bocanada" is Cerati's album with the most music videos produced to date. Allmusic granted it 4 1/2 stars out of 5 possible. Besides having a high rating, it's more surprising since it is not very common for this website to evaluate a Latin album with a good rating. [2]
