This album functioned as a review of their first seven years of trajectory, including new versions of classics and songs that had been left out of their previous albums for various reasons, including censorship. The album is a demonstration of the solidity of the repertoire accumulated by León in such a short time and of his ability to remain relevant in a changing music market.
The recording included collaborations with musicians from diverse fields, reflecting Gieco's open-mindedness and his constant interest in dialogue between different genres and generations of national artists. Songs like 'La Navidad de Luis' acquired a new life in this context, allowing one to appreciate the interpretive evolution of a León who showed himself increasingly confident and powerful vocally.
It was a work of closing a stage before his great anthropological and musical project that would lead him to travel through the depths of Argentina in the following years in a systematic and passionate manner. 7 años is the testimony of the persistence of an artist who knew how to build his own resilient identity in one of the most difficult periods of the cultural history of his country.
