In this post i would like to introduce you to some of the best Spanish rock bands ever . I have chosen what are for me 3 of the best
The first Triana known as the Pink Floyd of spain Triana are a group from Sevilla in spain named after the neighborhood they come from , there music is a fusion of flamenco and rock and are probably the most loved of all spanish rock groups . The artists are now unfortunately all dead but there music lives on
From there album The Patio here is one of there most famous songs
Abre La Puerta (open the door)

El Sueño(the dream)

All of these bands have been influenced by British and American rock , but have produced there own styles to create great spanish rock . Even if you don’t understand the words the music is international and of the best quality .
All these bands can be found on amazon and i would recomend you buy at least one for your collection
I can’t wait until September 15th – if these songs are anything to go by Bert’s Music Mix is going be simply Top Banana.
Now I know why I started this website
Thanks Bert – some great music here that I would never have heard without you.
Have played each song twice – my favorite has to be Extremoduro love the guys voice. Trouble is this album is 23 quid on Amazon plus delivery. Bert do you recommend another album by them?
Thanks LD im happy you like them i can recomend any of there albums , most can be found on amazon and not all are so expensive (rediculious price) the mini mix is on its way and i hope it is as good as it is expected to be , weird and wonderfull for shure
