So I think having an open mind and allowing the lines to blur between art, music, fashion, food, what have you, all leads to cultivating a much more open and enjoyable aesthetic sensibility.

Miguel de Cervantes

The greatest influence came from the television and the proliferation of magazines that included contents on pop groups. I believe that at the end of the 1970s, like is happening now, pop and rock were practically separated in the eyes of the public and critics, who considered the first more frivolous and easy and the second more serious and prestigious.
