In 1970, when the trend of singing in English language in Latin America had little acceptance, they released their first album made only of cover versions called Estoy Herido through Odeon Records, with the track list ranging from "Río Verde" ("Green River") by Creedence Clearwater Revival to "Enciende mi Fuego" ("Light My Fire") by The Doors, under the genre that would become known as soul rock. Iturbide had a raspy voice, which was the band's signature trademark.

In 1971, they released an album called Galleta Soul. Their influences on this album were Otis Redding, James Brown, Ray Charles, Stax, Wilson Pickett, Johnnie Taylor, Motown, Jeff Beck Group, Bill Deal and the Rhondels, Steve Cropper, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Southern Soul and Small Faces. Eight of the twelve songs were written by Iturbide and Conte (who were responsible for the lyrics). On the back cover of the album was written that their lyrics ranged from subjects concerning LSD to racial issues.

As a final attempt, in 1975 Iturbide decided to continue the project and reformulated the band's line-up, now a quartet, to include Eduardo Sanz, as a guitarist, Lito Olmos, on bass, and Maria José, on drums. Now just called Galleta, the new self-titled album of the band hits the stores in 1975. The soul rock was still the main genre, but now they started to play hard rock covers of some songs of the British band Ten Years After.[1] In 1975, when it was a turbulent time in Latin America, the album was not warmly received. In Brazil, Iturbide is considered one of the idols of this genre coming from Argentina. One of the band's hits was the song "I Am So Happy." They influenced the Brazilian band The Fevers.[2]

In the 21st-century the band's songs continue to be re-recorded[3] and concerts are made in their tribute.[4]

gollark: Arch is largely based on binary packages. Packages target x86-64 microprocessors to assist performance on modern hardware. A ports/ebuild-like system is also provided for automated source compilation, known as the Arch Build System. Arch Linux focuses on simplicity of design, meaning that the main focus involves creating an environment that is straightforward and relatively easy for the user to understand directly, rather than providing polished point-and-click style management tools — the package manager, for example, does not have an official graphical front-end. This is largely achieved by encouraging the use of succinctly commented, clean configuration files that are arranged for quick access and editing. This has earned it a reputation as a distribution for "advanced users" who are willing to use the command line. The Arch Linux website supplies ISO images that can be run from CD or USB. After a user partitions and formats their drive, a simple command line script (pacstrap) is used to install the base system. The installation of additional packages which are not part of the base system (for example, desktop environments), can be done with either pacstrap, or Pacman after booting (or chrooting) into the new installation.
gollark: On March 2021, Arch Linux developers were thinking of porting Arch Linux packages to x86_64-v3. x86-64-v3 roughly correlates to Intel Haswell era of processors.
gollark: The migration to systemd as its init system started in August 2012, and it became the default on new installations in October 2012. It replaced the SysV-style init system, used since the distribution inception. On 24 February 2020, Aaron Griffin announced that due to his limited involvement with the project, he would, after a voting period, transfer control of the project to Levente Polyak. This change also led to a new 2-year term period being added to the Project Leader position. The end of i686 support was announced in January 2017, with the February 2017 ISO being the last one including i686 and making the architecture unsupported in November 2017. Since then, the community derivative Arch Linux 32 can be used for i686 hardware.
gollark: Vinet led Arch Linux until 1 October 2007, when he stepped down due to lack of time, transferring control of the project to Aaron Griffin.
gollark: Originally only for 32-bit x86 CPUs, the first x86_64 installation ISO was released in April 2006.
