Little Butterfly Records present Jorge Flaco Barral's lost album Chau. Esteban Leivas talks about the album: "Chau, Flaco's 'lost' album, was an urgent idea that, somehow, Hamlet and I put into his tight list of things to do and unresolved emotions stemming from his sudden decision to go to Europe in 1972. We considered that Jorge 'Flaco' Barral, one of the most charismatic and different artists of the emerging movement of rock, blues and related Montevideano of the early seventies, had to leave a personal, personal legacy, beyond his previous collective works with Opus Alfa and Days Of Blues (Dias De Blues). We knew many of his songs were hidden, except couple of them had appeared publicly in few occasions. Most of the songs show very personal subtlety and lyrical sensitivity that the Flaco had already demonstrated with his previous groups. It was about Flaco recording the songs that he wanted to leave the way he considered to be right. In the end, what remained was a unique document of a different and original artist, an unfinished product that lacked time but what is a reflection of the urgencies we all lived in those days."
