Esquivando Charcos is the first album by Argentine band La Renga.

Until 1991 it was only available in cassette and it was not available in music shops, although the live versions of these songs (along with a few other tracks) can be heard in the album Bailando En Una Pata.

The album was included in a US-only collection called Clásicos del Rock en Español without the band's knowledge and with different artwork.

Since the band did not have a company to produce the album, they decided to do it themselves (record, distribution and production).

With the great progress the band made, when they became famous (after releasing their fourth album Despedazado por Mil Partes), PolyGram suggested to them that it should be re-released.
