Alpha III - Spectro (1974)

The debut album from this band from Brazil.

The band was a quartet with a lineup of percussion, drums, bass and keyboards.

This is the debut album from this band who has so far released over thirty albums. I got a dozen of them and will review them this year.

The band was keyboard player Amyr Cantusio Junior's band and vehicle for his music. He was born in Egypt but ended up in Brazil.

A debut album the first stage on a long journey... in the case of this band. The debut album, as in the case of Genesis, may not be representative for what the band later recorded.

I hope this is the case of Alpha III's debut album.

The music attempted is symphonic prog in the vein of Ekseption and ELP.

The sound is very poor. So is the keyboards sound too and the melodies is very poor too. 

This debut album is a failure and a turkey. There no other things I can say.
