Ariel Rot's solo career was revived when the Rodríguez brothers said goodbye. For this, he had the best-performing band on the planet in those years, Los Attractions, Elvis Costello's band, and masters on each of their instruments. Together with them and a repertoire full of great songs, and under the production of Joe Blaney, they embarked on recording an exceptional repertoire, with songs such as “Baile de ilusiones”, “Mil mentiras y una verdad” where he featured Fito Páez on vocals, the legendary “Vicios caros” or the live portrait of Madrid with lyrics by Moris “Bruma en la Castellana”. Over time, it has become a reference album for many rock bands who proved that, indeed, Ariel is a rock legend in our language.
25 years later, these songs remain relevant and completely current, and that is why this special edition is being released in double CD format, where, in addition to its remastering, it comes accompanied by the demos he previously recorded, in his home studio or with a luxury band at Sintonía studios, more live tracks taken from his Madrid show or with his side band The Rota. The album features an extensive photo report of the recording at Du Manoir, by Javier Salas and Alan Colbert, many of them previously unpublished, and the text-interview by Federico Oldenburgh where we will discover the story of “Hablando Solo”
