Carolina Fasulo

Carola was an exceptional singer, she gave life to each song she performed, vocalizing both strong and subtle songs equally well. She told Alfredo Rosso her story in a 1996 interview: “I always sang, since I was little. The first thing I did was study Spanish dances, play the castanets and hit the shoes while dancing. I loved rock n´roll, which at that time was a half forbidden thing. " Then Carola discovered what it was to compose songs "in a rocker sense", in her own words. “The two composers that influenced me the most were Javier Martínez (2) and Luis Alberto Spinetta. Precisely, everything I did in Damas Negras has to do with that poetics. And is that Carola was not improvised, in addition to composing beautiful lyrics, had a great formal musical training and knew how to play the guitar. He also had the possibility of working side by side with an extremely talented musician like Carlos Cutaia, who officiated as an arranger, companion and musical director. In 1973, through the Harvest label, Carola published a single with the songs "The Night Journey" and "Eva estirpe terrena" accompanied by David Lebon. That same year he recorded in the Phonalex studios what would be his only solo album: Damas Negras. Published through the Talent label, which was currently directed by Jorge Álvarez. Also, the album featured the participation of various musicians such as Oscar Moro, Bocón Frascino, Ricardo Jelicié, Jorge Cutello, Emilio Del Guercio, among others.
