Trivia / Patricio Rey y sus Redonditos de Ricota

• Breakup Breakout:
  • Of the "Bay Biscuits", the backing female choir, Fabiana Cantilo had the highest success outside of the band. Meanwhile, Isabel De Sebastián became the lead singer of seminal band Metropoli and Vivi Tellas became an actress. None of them were able to leave their mark on the Argentinean artistic scene as Cantilo did, though.
  • Outside of the Bay Biscuits, the only former member of the band outside of Indio and Skay to gain some relevance and notoriety was Willy Crook, as the saxofonist of Los Abuelos de la Nada.
• Creative Differences: What led Indio and Skay to take separate routes after Momo Sampler.
• The Pete Best:
  • All members not named Carlos "Indio" Solari, Eduardo "Skay" Beilinson, Daniel Fernando "Semilla" Bucciarelli, Walter Sidotti and Sergio Dawi count.
  • Depending if you like the New Sound Albums Ultimo Bondi a Finisterre and Momo Sampler, the same is true of programmer and half-time drummer Hernán Aramberri, who later became one of two drummers in Solari's solo backing band Los Fundamentalistas del Aire Acondicionado.
  • Well-versed fans may remember bassist Daniel Fenton, guitarist Tito Fargo D'Aviero, saxofonist Willy Crook, drummer "Piojo" Ábalos, and multiinstrumentist Gabriel "Conejo" Jolivet. Of them, only Crook had any kind of notoriety, having played in Los Abuelos de la Nada. The entirety of this lineup got replaced when the band transitioned to a full-time rock band, with Skay remaining as the single guitarist after Oktubre was released.
  • Monologuist and journalist Enrique Symns also had some routines with the band, though he left in bitter terms.
  • The band had also a trio of female singers, the Bay Biscuits (composed of Fabiana Cantilo, Isabel De Sebastián and Vivi Tellas). This trio is an example within an example as well, as Cantilo, despite being mostly well known for doing cover versions, became a legendary star on her own right for her solo work, while De Sebastián became the lead singer of Metropoli. As for Vivi Tellas? She became an actress.
  • A sad example is Andrés Theocharidis, who played keyboards for some shows between Oktubre and Un Baion Para El Ojo Idiota and became a permanent member... a run that lasted a few weeks before he was killed in a car accident.
• Refitted for Sequel:
  • "Rock para el Negro Atila", from Lobo Suelto, started as a song called "Camila", crafted during the recording sessions for Gulp!.
  • Three songs from Luzbelito ("Blues de la Libertad" and the tandem "Mariposa Pontiac/Rock del país") were crafted during the Gulp! sessions as well.
  • "Vamos las Bandas", from Un Baión para el Ojo Idiota is a repurposed version of an early song called "A toda velocidad".
• Romance on the Set: Skay and the band's manager, Carmen "La Negra Poli" Policastro, met during the earlier stages of the band's existence. They're still together nowadays, and she's now the manager of his solo career.
• What Could Have Been:
  • There were a lot of songs left out of Gulp!, among those "Mi genio amor", "Honolulu" and "Rodando".
  • Cut songs "El regreso de Mao", "De estos polvos, futuros lodos", "Roxana Porchelana" and "Rock de las Abejas" were left out of Oktubre.
  • "Reina Momo" didn't made the cut for Momo Sampler at the last minute. The band wasn't also satisfied with how it sounded, though eventually Solari warmed up to it.
• Working Title: "Unos Pocos Peligros Sensatos" was previously named "Todo Es Efímero".
