 Opinions and other informations:

    

One of the few bands from Madrid doing fusion, genre in which Catalonia was much more productive in the 70s. The first album "Luna Llena" is still signed by Pedro Ruy Blas as a soloits, being then the founder of the band that he led. The were accompanying band for Paco de Lucía in a record dedicated to Manuel de Falla (from that moment on, Jorge and Rubem have been collaborating with Paco in a regular manner). They also worked with Camarón in an album that was a revolution by its time: "La Leyenda del Tiempo", in which also Veneno and part of the band Alameda were involved). (José Ma. Anaya).


Fusion band from Madrid that can be considered as the band playing with Pedro Ruy Blas. Only the records from 1977 and 1978 were published under the name of Dolores, the rest were signed by Pedro Ruy Blas. After "Asa-nisi-masa" they splitted and Pedro continued his solo career that is still active today. (Diego Herrera)
