Abedul was a five piece formation that released only one album album
entitled Nosotros in 1979. The music sounds very melodic and harmonic, it
ranges from rock and jazz to soul and symphonic rock.
The eight compositions are very tastefully arranged but you have to be up to
the very distinctive and emotional vocals that often sound close to soul,
not always my cup of tea. The interplay between the musicians is good and
the omnipresent vintage keyboards (organ, synthesizers, string-ensemble)
sound very delicate so my conclusion is: this wonderful music deserves more
attention.
