They began as "New Jazz Trio" and later thay change into Barcelona Traction. They used to play for Enric Barbat and in thjeir albums made a jazz - rock fusion in the tradition of the catalan progressive bands. When they splitted, Rabassa and Cluá joined the band of the singer Joan Manuel Serrat and Guri is (or was) the conductor of the orchestra of the catalan TV station TV3. (Diego Herrera)
