**World Record** (1976) es el 7mo disco del grupo inglés **Van der Graaf Generator.** Como parte de la ola creativa que produjo cuatro LP's en menos de dos años, este sería la obra póstuma de la formación clásica del grupo. Tras su publicación Hugh Banton saldría del grupo alegando desacuerdos en la manera de adjudicar los créditos y poco después saldría también David Jackson. Este es por mucho el disco más experimental de los cuatro y como todo album que se aparta de la manera común de hacer música tiende a tener críticas dispares, hay quien lo encuentra insoportable y hay quien lo considera una obra maestra. Lo que sí es cierto es que es lo suficientemente complejo para hacer inconveniente la crítica basada en criterios simplones como las que aparecen en Progarchives. Posiblemente sea este el disco más difícil de VdGG, con sonidos vanguardistas mezclados con guiños a música regional- concretamente música española, valses, reggae, etc.- todo con el sonido peculiar de un grupo de rock que no usa bajo eléctrico y cuyo saxofonista toca dos saxos simultáneamente. Ningún instrumento usa un timbre que sea común al genero, de hecho puedo decir que no he oído ningún otro disco que suene como éste.

Primero de nuestros especiales de la temporada, retrocedemos en el tiempo hasta 1968 para descubrir la historia de una de las bandas consideradas como emblemáticas dentro del género: Van der Graaf Generator, también conocidos por sus siglas VdGG. En esta extensa e intensa primera parte recorreremos el periodo transcurrido entre 1968 y 1976.

Para una empresa de este calibre necesitábamos contar con dos de los mayores expertos del mundo "vandergraafiano" y colaboradores asiduos e insustituibles de Subterranea, Ignacio Carlos Romeo Puolakka y David Fresno "Moloko". Completaremos el equipo David Pintos y Ricardo Hernández. Programa larguito donde los haya, pero muy denso en contenido y con una gran selección musical. Que lo disfrutéis.
