Early life and Soda Stereo[edit]Cerati was born on 11 August 1959 inBuenos Aires, Argentina. He grew up in a middle class household; his paternal family was of Lombard descent[11]and his maternal family was of Irish origin.[12]His father was an accountant and regularly traveled abroad. From his early memories he had an idyllic love of the sun and nature. Ceratis first passion was art and in elementary school he drew Comics and created his own Comic book characters.Ceratis parents acquired a guitar for him when he was nine years old, at that point Cerati started to take music seriously, becoming a fanatic of rock and roll:Los que me pegaron en ese momento fueronHendrixcon "Purple Haze" yThe Whocon "Pictures of Lily". Durante semanas los escuch sin parar. Ah se me despert el deseo de tocar, de armar un grupo (English: The ones who struck me at the time wereHendrixwith "Purple Haze" andThe Whowith "Pictures of Lily". During weeks, I listened non-stop. That is when the desire to play, to start a band, was awakened).[13]By the age of 13 he formed a trio and started playing at house parties and in the localCatholicschool, where he eventually joined the choir.[14]Cerati was a good student until his third year of Junior High School when he met a fellow student who, like himself, was into Rock and Roll,He was more advanced in everything, he smokedmarijuanaand had many records. At that moment I started to separate myself from my classmates. I started listening toProgressive rockbecause this guy had everything,King Crimson,Frank Zappa,Deep Purple,Led Zeppelin,Yes,Soft Machine,Roxy Music...My dad used to travel outside on business trips and he started bringing me records. In 1973 it was not easy to have imports. InArgentinathe records came out a long time after....they came out. My father brought me my first imported guitar, aGibson. I went to meet him at the airport and it was unforgettable.After serving compulsory military service in 1979 Cerati entered the university to pursue a degree in marketing, something that he was not passionate about. His family supported him with his music, "Mi familia me vio tan enloquecido con la msica, que pensaron que algo de xito iba a tener" (My family saw that I was so crazy about music, that they thought I would have some success [with it]). At theUniversidad del Salvador, a Jesuit university inBuenos Aires, he met Hctor "Zeta" Bosio, also a marketing student. The two hit it off and decided to form a band. They were fans ofThe Police,The Beatles,XTC,Elvis Costello, television, andThe Talking Heads. In 1982, after various lineup changes that includedRichard Coleman, Daniel Melero, andAndrs Calamaroas well as others, Bosio and Cerati recruitedCharly Albertias their drummer, thus formingSoda Stereo.[14]Soda Stereosigned to Sony Music in 1984 and released their debut LPSoda Stereothat same year.Nada Personal("Nothing Personal") followed in 1985 giving Soda Stereo their first hit with "Cuando pase el temblor" ("When the Earthquake Ends").
