Aeroblus

Aeroblus was a hard rock power trio formed by Pappo-Alejandro Medina-Rolando Castello Junior in 1977. It was a band parallel to Pappo's Blues and has a style closer to heavy metal, preceding what would later be Riff. In 2012 on the occasion of his 35 years, there was a meeting with all the members except Pappo who died in 2005, who took his place as a guest for that show, the musician Gustavo Napoli. After dissolving Pappo's Blues, Pappo and Alejandro Medina (bassist of Manal and La Heavy of Rock and Roll) decide to form a new group, but in the absence of a suitable drummer, they travel to Brazil in their search and find Rolando Castello Junior to form the Aeroblus trio.2 They debuted on January 6, 1977 at the Premier Theater in Buenos Aires with a series of concerts that received negative criticism for their "lack of rehearsal", a problem that was quickly resolved.2 This is how Aeroblus managed to edit his only work. The delay in the edition of the album, plus the pressure that the police made in those years in Argentina during the Military Dictatorship, made Rolando Castello Junior decide to return and stay in Brazil. Already in 1978, Pappo again along with Medina reflow Aeroblus, incorporating Claudio Pesavento on keyboards and without Castello, which is replaced by Gonzalo Farrugia. The group appears in Mar del Plata playing tracks from the album and some new ones, but it does not prosper despite the good reviews of the time, and Pappo decides to return with Pappo's Blues. In May 2012 Aeroblus turned thirty-five years old. In the years 2010 and 2011 he was honored both in Argentina and in Brazil by different bands and musicians: on May 28, 2010, Alejandro Medina performed a tribute concert at 'El Teatro' de Flores with Chizzo de La Renga on guitar as a replacement of the deceased Pappo and the same Rolando Castello Junior. on drums come especially from Brazil for the occasion, thirty three years after the album was released in 1977.
