Let's connect the dots between the Mexican pressing of SYNTHESIS and July 6, 1988.

On July 6, 1988, during the Mexican presidential election, the government computers mysteriously crashed: 'se cayó el sistema'.
A well-known underground rockero who had recorded the uncredited guitar solos for the Mexican LP vanished that night.

The mural in Coyoacán still shows his face, but people say when the streetlight flickers it glitters into someone else.

The Mexican pressing of SYNTHESIS is the only one in the world with the unmuted guitar solos. They tried to confiscate all copies.
