agree  Sandra Rodriguez: ...or just that "throws you back to".../ Dig! (that's retro too) I mean, I really like them, just threw in the regular spin, in case it was of any use to our Argentinian friend.

rock that reminds, that transfer , that takes


Explanation:
si el sentido es en cuanto a que te transporta, podrían ser reminds o transfer. Si el sentido es que se basa en el rock de esos años podría ser influenced o based.
