History
Early months
In his early months, the band was formed by Luis Alberto Spinetta (guitar and main vocals), Pedro Aznar (bass-guitar), Lito Vitale (keyboards), Juan del Barrio (keyboards) and Pomo Lorenzo (drums).
Alma de Diamante and recital with Serú Girán
In August 1980, after the substitution of Lito Vitale for Diego Rapoport in the keyboards, and Pedro Aznar for Beto Satragni in the bass-guitar, the band was presented the album Alma de Diamante. Then, in September, Jade was alterned with Serú Girán in a recital.
Los niños que escriben en el cielo
After any modification in the alineation of the band (was remplazed Beto Satragni for Frank Ojstersek in the bass guitar, and Juan del Barrio by Leo Sujatovich in the keyboards), Jade was presented the album Los niños que escriben en el cielo in the Prima Rock Festival on September 1981.
Bajo Belgrano
After the solo album of Spinetta, Kamikaze, and more modifications in the alineation (Frank Ojstersek was remplazed for César Franov in the bass-guitar), the album Bajo Belgrano was presented between another Spinetta's solo album: Mondo di Cromo. The third album of Jade, had pop influences.
Madre en años luz and final
In 1984, the band included Lito Epumer in the main guitar, and replaced Leo Sujatovich for Mono Fontana in the keyboards. They went on to present their fourth and last album, Madre en años luz, with a concert at the Luna Park Stadium. This album has since influenced a lot of synth-pop sounds popular in argentinian bands from the 1980s. Then, in the middle of 1985, with Paul Dourge in the mini-mood, the band was dissolved.
