'Nación Rock'

This documentary shows the history of rock music in Colombia from the 60's to the year '95. I wanted to post something like this before, but the only material I found only had the first part without mentioning much about hard rock and metal. This material, on the other hand, is more complete, and I think it is a good introduction to begin to know about our roots in the rock culture. Enjoy it!

I'm very grateful to the people who made this documentary possible, who are mentioned in the description that follows. I especially thank Feloarias for sharing this on Youtube.



'Nación Rock'

It was showed from November 16th 2007 to March 16th 2008 at the National Museum of Colombia.
