Jesús Ordovás
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jesús Ordovás was born in Ferrol (A Coruña) in 1947. He studied sociology in Madrid, where he combined his academic life with a growing interest in the evolving pop and rock music scene of the 1970s.
In 1974, he began contributing regularly to music publications such as AU, Ozono, and Disco Expres. In 1979, he became co-director, along with Jose M. Rey and Tomás Fdo. Flores, of the program Diario Pop[1] on Radio 3, a station focused mainly on pop and rock music that strayed from the mainstream and commercial charts.[2]
He is considered one of the leading promoters of the countercultural movement[3] that emerged during the early years of Spain's democratic transition, known as the Movida Madrileña.[4]
