After Escarcha broke up, Sáez, Racca and Darias remained together and joined singer Saúl Blanch to keep on playing hard rock à la Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin.

Their rare first single and now hard to get album were released on a small independent label (TK). No pisar el infinito is, no wonder, a good hard rock and blues album, full of guitar riffs et al. Best tracks are "El mago del tiempo", "Ocúltame amigo", and the nice ballad "Ya tenés por quién luchar".

The following year, now on a big label, they released a much heavier second LP with better production but not as good as the first one. The long "Melancólica muchacha" (featuring violin player Fernando Suárez Paz) is possibly the best track.

In 1981, a third album on another independent label -now without Sáez- hit the stores (Escuela de rock & roll [Tonodisc 8031]).

Later on, Sáez, Racca and Darias joined famous Argentine tennis player Guillermo Vilas to form Dr. Silva, a short living group to fulfil Vilas' dream to sing his nonsense lyrics with a rock and roll band. They released a poor CD.

Hugo Racca and Saúl Blanch released solo albums as well. Plus' second album was reissued on CD featuring bonus tracks under the title Melancólica muchacha.
