'La Fachada De Piedra (The Stone Facade) formed in 1968 in Guadalajara, Mexico. They never managed to release an album during their heyday but still developed a strong reputation. The band belted out a blend of bluesy underground rock with English vocals and a tad of Latin percussion. They appeared at the Avandaro rock festival in 1971, and contributed four studio tracks to the compilation album that commemorated the event, Rock En Avandaro - Valle De Bravo (Orfeon E-12-761) 1971 R2. These tracks appear on the Shadoks collection.' - Dreams, Fantasies And Nightmares
