Biography

Los Jaivas appeared in Chilean music in 1963 as a progressive-rock-andino group, mixing rock with South American ancestral music. The Parra brothers met Mario Mutis and Eduardo “Gato” Alquinta (gato is the Spanish word for cat) in their childhood and joined to play music. They acquired fame in Viña del Mar, by playing at diverse parties and shows.

The band took refuge in Argentina after the… Read more in Amazon's Los Jaivas Store

5.0 out of 5 stars The very best of Los Jaivas, February 3, 2003
By 
This review is from: Obras Cumbres (Audio CD)
This is one of the most amazing CD's I've never heard. Los Jaivas is probably the unique band in the world that has mixed the progresive and rock music with the rythms of the ancient amerindian cultures. It is not rock music at all but the rockers will be surprised to hear these songs (specially those corresponding to the early songs) and it is not andean music either but the people who likes this kind of music will be surprised too with the particular atmosphere created in these songs.
Los Jaivas have 40 years of development in expanding our perception of music and this CD means a very good way to enter to this beatiful world of Los Jaivas. If you wanna open your mind and your ears to a very unique music, don't hesitate and get it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Real Chilean music represents!, January 25, 2005
By 
Elena de Chile (Portland, Oregon, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Obras Cumbres (Audio CD)
This is one of my favorite bands from Chile and this album is great, since it holds many of their hits. Mira Ninita is the most romantic song in the whole world and very beautiful as well. Please, if you would like to hear a different kind of "Latin" music, I would really recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excepcional recopilacion, September 16, 2002

This review is from: Obras Cumbres (Audio CD)
Esta es una estupenda recopilacion de la discografia de Los Jaivas, musica mistica de los Andes. La grabacion es de excelente calidad. Los discos de Los Jaivas son dificiles de conseguir, al menos aqui en Gringolandia, lo cual hace de "Obras Cumbres" una codiciada gema. ¿Que se puede decir de la musica de Los Jaivas que no se halla dicho? La musica de Los Jaivas esta para mi atada para siempre a mi primer encuentro con la cordillera andina, "con toda el alma, dulzura mia..."
