Agustin Pereyra Lucena

Argentinian guitarist Agustín Pereyra Lucena's 1980 album La Rana. Recorded in Oslo, La Rana features Agustín's stunning takes on compositions by Ivan Lins, Antonio Carlos Jobim and Agustín's friend and musical hero Baden Powell.

In addition to these, and a number of Agustín's own compositions including the fifteen-minute masterpiece "Encuentro De Sombras", the album's title track is an idiosyncratic version of Joao Donato's "A Rã" (Eng: The Frog/ Esp: La Rana) from his 1973 album Quem É Quem.
