Nacha Pop was one of the most dear bands in the 80s in Spain. They called it a day in October 1988 (although they reunited several years later), and they played a special concert that was recorded and released as 80-88. This was the band by then:
Many years later, in 2004, a DVD from this concert was released, with a slightly different setlist as well as a documentary.

Sad news struck when it was announced that Sergio Castillo had passed away on March 10th, 2012 due to cancer. He was 57. Spanish rock scene will miss him a lot, both as a producer and drummer. This is my tribute to Sergio. I started writing my page about him in 2002 (yes, 10 years ago! But for some reasons I always waited to publish it, thinking that it was incomplete as it´s difficult finding accurate info on live lineups for Spanish lead singers).
A benefit concert as a tribute to Sergio Castillo will be held in Madrid, Spain on April 27th, 2012, and many of his friends and colleagues will play there. For now, these are the names announced: Miguel Rios, Cristina Narea, Carlos Narea, Paco Bastante, Tito Davila, Carlos Brooking, Francis Sax, Marcela Ferrari, Antonio Calero, Geni, Manuel Villalta, Pana, Pancho Amat and Jose Antonio Romero.

QUESTIONS:
01. Was Gary Boyle a real member of She´s French, maybe when Sergio Castillo was in the band?
02. I still have to find credits for albums featuring Sergio by Victor Manuel, Ana Belen, Alaska, Leño, Raimundo Amador, Pasion Vega, Antonio Flores, Joan Manuel Serrat or Antonio Vega.
