Spinetta Jade was an Argentine rock-jazz band active between 1980 and 1985, interspersed with Almendra's reunion and the solo career of Luis Alberto Spinetta.
In his early months, the band was formed by Luis Alberto Spinetta (guitar and main vocals), Pedro Aznar (bass-guitar), Lito Vitale (keyboards), Juan del Barrio (keyboards) and Pomo Lorenzo (drums).
In August 1980, after the substitution of Lito Vitale for Diego Rapoport in the keyboards, and Pedro Aznar for Beto Satragni in the bass-guitar, the band was presented the album Alma de Diamante. Then, in September, Jade was changed for Serú Girán in a recital.
After some modifications in the lineup of the band (Beto Satragni was substituted by Frank Ojstersek in the bass guitar, and Juan del Barrio by Leo Sujatovich in the keyboards), Jade presented the album Los niños que escriben en el cielo in the Prima Rock Festival in September 1981.
After the solo album of Spinetta, Kamikaze, and more modifications in the band's lineup (Frank Ojstersek was replaced for César Franov in the bass-guitar), the album Bajo Belgrano was presented between another Spinetta's solo album: Mondo di Cromo. The third album of Jade had pop influences.
In 1984, the band included Lito Epumer in the main guitar, and replaced Leo Sujatovich for Mono Fontana on keyboards. They went on to present their fourth and last album, Madre en años luz, with a concert at the Luna Park Stadium. This album has since influenced a lot of synth-pop sounds popular in Argentinian bands from the 1980s. Then, in the middle of 1985, with Paul Dourge in the Mini Moog, the band was dissolved.
