He's going to tell us about the history of Argentine national rock, a unique rock genre in Latin America. Rock in Argentina is much more than music, it is a kind of social struggle and a way of expressing ourselves in tougher political times. Some geniuses of this genre were Charly García, Spinetta and Gustavo Cerati. Learn about this topic and all the vocabulary we use by listening to the interview. ------------- Marcelo Lamela is a rock and roll lover who over time has become an expert on the subject.
