Panal - Panal LP

Vampisoul present the first official reissue of Panal's self-titled album, originally released in 1973. Panal was born following the IRT director's will to put together a group that would blend folk and rock in a similar way to one of the most successful bands in the Chilean label: Los Jaivas. A roster of very experienced and talented musicians was recruited for this project and this self-titled album was finally released in 1973. Fierce percussions, stunning guitar riffs and filtered voices create a unique sound across this only album by Panal. The guitar of Carlos Corales (also founder of Aguaturbia) shows resemblances of Santana's style and Franz Benko's work on the production adds a fresh twist and renewed touch to the featured repertoire. Shortly after the coup, the group disbanded, leaving behind this masterpiece. Remastered sound from the original master tapes.
