Topo (5)

Spanish pop-rock band founded in 1979 by Jose Luis Jiménez and Lene Laina, ex-members from [a726244], with Víctor Ruiz (keyboards, from "Aluvión") and Terry Barrios (drums, from "Los Zurdos" and [a2212732]). They released "Topo" in 1979, a pop-rock LP featuring "Mis amigos", but soon they followed a more pop fashion. In 1984 Jiménez founded a new band with Cacho Casal replacing Barrios on drums, Luis Cruz (guitars & vocals) and Pablo Salinas (keyboards, guitars, vocals). They split-up in the late 80s, but in 1998 Jiménez and Laina re-joined the band with Roger Castro (drums) and Sergio Cisneros (keyboards).
