Little Butterfly Records present the first time reissue of
Jorge Galemire
's second album
Segundos Afuera
, recorded and released in 1983. Considered a landmark of '80s Uruguayan music. Candombe, rock, and jazz shake hands with singer-songwriter vibes, creating a sophisticated pop with South American roots and equal doses of groove and psychedelia.
Segundos Afuera
was recorded at La Batuta, the first recording studio in Uruguay to have 16 channels. The sound engineer (and partly music co-producer) was again
Dario Ribeiro
. Ribeiro was instrumental in the album's sonic experimentations, encouraging Galemire's ideas. The textures achieved with backward tapes in "Sin Saber Porqué" and "Un Son", the overlapping female voices (performed by the trio
Travesía
) in that song, the three drums added in "Kublai Kan" and its male choral canon are a sample of these searches, unusual until that moment in Uruguayan music.
Segundos Afuera
had a generous studio budget for the time. It was recorded in about 300 hours, when it was usual for the Orfeo label to assign a maximum of 100 hours for these projects. Despite that fact, it's surprising how Galemire and Ribeiro achieved a work so stylized taking the best of Uruguayan studios technical limitations. The rhythm section of
Segundos Afuera
was the same as the previous record:
Andrés Recagno
on bass (who also played synthesizers, backing vocals and some arrangements) and
Gustavo Etchenique
on drums, plus
Carlos "Boca" Ferreira
on percussion. More than thirty musicians are featured in the album. Among them are some of Galemire's artistic heroes such as
Osvaldo Fattoruso
,
Eduardo Mateo
, and
Dino
.
Segundos Afuera
went almost unnoticed by the general audience. However, it became an instant classic in the Uruguayan music scene from the very moment of its release. The sophistication of its sound; the unique way of combining pop, rock, jazz, candombe, milonga, and murga; the search for moods and textures; the lyrics that mixed common themes and existential reflection dazzled and influenced different generations of artists. Galemire released only three studio albums after
Segundos Afuera
. None of them were as ambitious as this one. Its cult status was reinforced when it became inaccessible. After a first release of a few hundred vinyl and cassette copies, the album was never reissued in any format. The few copies available became a prized collector's item in Uruguay and abroad.
