Vinyl LP pressing. Mateo Solo Bien Se Lame is a record that requires many superlatives in order to do it justice: From it's first moments, the music is lilting, poetic, intimate, in turns life-affirming and melancholic, with pulsating percussion backed by unheard-of guitar chords and tunings (perhaps the reason for the frequent Caetano Veloso comparisons); it is an album that sounds - simply put - honest. Released at the end of 1972 in both Argentina and Uruguay, it was received from that first moment as a classic. When iconoclastic maniac Eduardo Mateo traveled to Buenos Aires in October of 1971 to record what came to be Mateo solo bien se lame, his situation was unusual. Mateo had become a living legend of Uruguayan music: The public had a clear notion of the odd behavior that by the end of his brief life made him a part-time panhandler and apparent acid casualty. Making this happen was not easy, as Mateo tried to erase everything he recorded as soon as it was put onto tape. N the end, engineers Carlos Píriz and Eduardo Rozas selected material for the album from hours of free improvisations, and formed the album as it appears today.
