THEIR UNRELEASED FOURTH ALBUM FROM 1978.
THE MUSICIANS LOST THEIR SYMPHONIC ATTITUDE AND ARE MORE SONG
ORIENTED BUT NEVERTHLESS THE TRACKS ARE VERY PLEASANT, WITH THEIR
TYPICAL ITALIAN MELODIC FEELING.
ALPHATAURUS
Dietro l'uragano
CD - MMP 132
THIS CAN'T BE MISSED! PERFECTLY RECORDED, HERE THERE ARE ALPHATAURUS
BEST MOMENTS,, EXPECIALLY IN THE 13' TRACK "CLAUDETTE", CERTAINLY
ONE OF THE BEST SONG EVER RECORDED BY AN ITALIAN BAND. IS PIETRO
PELLEGRINI THE REAL ITALIAN KEITH EMERSON?
SAGITTARIAN
Sagittarian
CD - MMP 133
THANKS TO THE COURTESY OF OUR FRIEND KATSUHIKO "LUNA" HAYASHI
(GOD BLESS YOU) WE HAVE THE POSSIBILITY TO INTRODUCE YOU ONE OF
THE BEST RECORDS OF THE JAP PROG SCENE. ORIGINALLY PRESSED IN
1984 IN 100 COPIES(!) AND SOLD FOR OVER $1000.
FOLLI DI DIO
Folli di Dio
CD - MMP 134
THIS NEW BAND, EX EFFERVESCENT ELEPHANTS, IS DEEPLY INVOLVED IN
CLAUDIO ROCCHI MUSICAL WORLD. IT'S NOT A TYPICAL MELLOW RECORDS
PRODUCTION BUT WE THINK THAT IT DESERVES TO BE LISTENED TO BY
A WIDER AUDIENCE, EVEN IF IT'S NOT "SYMPHONIC".
LE ORME
Ad Gloriam
CD - MMP 135
ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT RECORDS IN ITALIAN MUSIC HISTORY. AMONG
PROGRESSIVE, BEAT AND PSYCHEDELIA, IT BEGAN A "NEW AGE" IN OUR
MUSIC. FROM THE WONDERFUL PSYC COVER TO THE LAST MINUTE OF THE
LAST SONG THE LISTENER WILL BE SURPRISED TO HEAR SUCH A HIGH LEVEL
MUSIC MADE IN '68.
JACULA
Tardo pede in magiam versus
CD - MMP 136
A DREAM COMES TRUE. BELIEVE IT OR NOT THIS IS THE REISSUE (FROM
MASTER TAPES) OF THE MYTHICAL LP THAT EVERYBODY LOOK FOR. IT WAS
A REAL NIGHTMARE TO HAVE ALL THE LEGAL PERMISSIONS BUT AT LAST
WE CAN OFFER YOU THIS GEM. I'LL NOT SPEND MANY WORDS AS YOU ALL
KNOW THE MUSIC.
ATON'S
H
CD - MMP 137
THE VERY FIRST RECORDINGS OF THIS GREAT NEW PROGRESSIVE BAND,
OPERATING IN THE MODE OF THE 70'S BUT BRINGING TO IT SOMETHING
VERY MUCH THEIR OWN.
CORTE DEI MIRACOLI
Live at Lux
CD - MMP 138
THE ONLY CHANCE TO HEAR THIS LEGENDARY BAND PLAYING LIVE. ALL
THEIR GREATER TRACKS ARE INCLUDED HERE AND SHOW THE GOOD PERFORMANCE
OF THE WIZARD ALESSIO FELTRI, ONE OF THE MOST INVENTIVE KEYBOARDS
OF THE ITALIAN PROGRESSIVE SCENE.
APOTEOSI
Apoteosi
CD - MMP 139
IN MY OPINION ONE OF THE THREE BEST ITALIAN PROGRESSIVE RECORDS
EVER. THIS FEATURES FEMALE VOCALS AS WELL AS INSTRUMENTAL TRACKS.
VERY MELODIC, WITH SOME COMPARISONS TO RENAISSANCE IN THE CLASSIC
UK PROG/SYMPHONIC STYLE. RELEASED FROM MASTER TAPES, A REAL MASTERPIECE.
LOCANDA DELLE FATE
Live
CD - MMP 140
NO MANY WORDS TO SAY, I THINK. THIS CD CAPTURES THE BAND DURING
THEIR TOUR FOR THEIR "FORSE LE LUCCIOLE NON SI AMANO PIU" ALBUM.
THERE'S ALSO AN UNRELEASED TRACK "LA GIOSTRA" AND THE SOUND QUALITY
IS REALLY GOOD. NEED TO SAY MORE?? THE GREATEST LATE 70'S BAND,
NO DOUBT.
