Tartessos. "Tiempo muerto" 1975 - Philips label Prog Rock Andaluz.

Tartessos was a rock band originally from Huelva, but also had a lot of activity at Seville, as part of his musicians were in Seville.
Was active between 1972 and 1976, although two years earlier was the name of Keys. Were considered precursors of Andalusian rock, as were the germ of what later became Alameda.
In the beginning, Tartessos conducting a very, very standard rock, singing in English and playing songs by The Allman Brothers Band, with hints of Jethro Tull or Caravan. In this line recorded four singles between 1973 and 1974 for the Phillips label, which later led to the LP "Time Out" published in 1975 and generated a fifth single.
As a curiosity it should be noted that the Sevillian joined as drummer Antonio "Tacita," which came from his experience with his band underground New times, band that also other musicians would come out of Alameda.
Anecdotally it should be noted that while the first singles were released with a single "S" for the LP edition of the group chose to put an "S" do not know if legal issues of public record or just consider it a modern .
The issue that gave title to the LP did show a clear relationship with the Andalusian rock. The LP included songs in English and Castilian, with some compositions of Jesus Conde, lyricist then continue to work to Alameda.
The biggest success was the group with the theme "Shoulder", of a more pop and came to ring the radio stations of the time.
Dissolved in 1976, incorporating Marinelli and Alameda Rock music and leaving the other components..
