It was on March 4 and 5, 1982 at the Real Madrid Pavilion in the Spanish capital when Miguel Ríos made history in Spanish music by making a qualitative leap in technological means with that show.
A pioneer of the rock scene in this country, the man from Granada was celebrating his 20th anniversary and had just recorded three albums that had vindicated him as a current artist: “Los viejos rockeros nunca muere” (1979), “boomerang rock and roll” (1980) and “Strangers in the Showcase” (1981). In addition, he had made money with his celebrated version of “Hymn to Joy.”
With almost the same band back then, Ríos set out to remember those two mythical nights on March 11 and 12, 2022 at the Wizink Center in Madrid, a success in attracting the public and colleagues who were with him on stage, as Víctor Manuel, Santi Balmes and Juan Saldarriaga (from Love of Lesbian) and Pucho and Guille Galván (from Vetusta Morla), Mikel Izal and Eva Amaral.
