Charly García, the iconic Argentine rocker, unleashed "Filosofía Barata y Zapatos de Goma" on May 7, 1990, under the Columbia label. This landmark album, a vibrant fusion of Argentine rock, Latin rock, and rock en español, spans a concise yet powerful 42 minutes. García's signature wit and raw emotion are on full display throughout the 11 tracks, which include the title track and fan favorites like "Reloj de Plastilina" and "No Te Mueras en Mi Casa." The album's title, translating to "Cheap Philosophy and Rubber Shoes," hints at García's knack for blending profound themes with everyday imagery. This record is a testament to García's enduring influence and his ability to capture the spirit of his generation.
