A spanish version of Tull? What a nasty ripoff, though the ending’s not bad.
And he sings as if he thinks he’s the lead to JCSuperstar.
Too funny

I remember this band appearing in a TV show when I was a child. They were more ore less famous in the early 80’s.
I can imagine that for sure Jethro Tull were their heros and their inspiration, although the final result was not the same ![]()
Didn’t that guy drive a bunch of rats out of Hamelin a few years back?
Ñu were a one-shot 5-piece Spanish band (violin, flute, keyboards & mellotron, guitar, bass, drums) with their sole album “Cuentos de Ayer y de Hoy” in 1979.
And the lead in JCSuperstar (Ted Neeley) used to record & rehearse in my brother’s garage with composer/keyboardist Mike Rapp. Circa their concept album “Ulysses: The Greek Suite” . He recently completed a 4-year tour headlining JCSuperstar again.
their Wiki page offers a pretty extensive discography.
as well as the website for the band: http://www.josecarlosmolina.es
still…funny stuff
apparently they just issued a DVD (well…a couple years ago) for a show they did in Madrid in 2006.
So he’ s still at it.
after seeing that, maybe you are ready to hear some Mägo de Oz:

The lead singer sounds like Ted Neeley in Jesus Christ Superstar.
What’s sad is that what these guys are doing was clearly intended as an adulation/emulation thing, but it only succeeds as a complete parody… Kinda what Spinal Tap did to most metal/spandex bands; they were just good enough to blur the line between themselves and the bands doing the same stuff for real - how do you do the Black Sabbath thing after Stonehenge?
Fortunately for Tull, circa '74, this band appeared a little too late, and not at all in the States, to do much harm… OTOH, I kinda liked the band Mago de Oz… Wanted to be Ian, myself, for quite awhile… ![]()
