Araxes

The begginings from this progressive-rock Spanish band were in 1971, when they were named 'Focus', and later 'Vientos Cambiantes': Fernando Artalejo (drummer on Cerebrum (2)), José Hervias, bass, Pedro Dieguez, vocals and Javier Esteve (also from Cerebrum (2)), guitar. Later that same year Dick Zappala joined them as second singer. They renamed the band as Araxes, and incorporated José Antonio Rodríguez, acoustic guitar and Jorge Pardo (flute). They just released a single in 1972, 'Something to say', without any success. After some line-up changes they re-appeared in 1974 as Araxes II.
