Artaud (album)
Released under the Pescado Rabioso name in October 1973, Artaud was effectively a Luis Alberto Spinetta solo work inspired by the writings of Antonin Artaud. Its irregularly shaped sleeve and openly literary songs pushed rock nacional toward art-rock ambition. It is frequently named the greatest album in the history of Argentine rock.

Connections1
collaborates with → Luis Alberto Spinetta
After Almendra, Spinetta channelled his harder, more experimental impulses into Pescado Rabioso, under whose name he released Artaud in 1973. Conceived largely as his own work and inspired by the French writer Antonin Artaud, the album pushed rock nacional toward full art-rock ambition.
