One of my faves....you made me play it this morning.  Such diverse key atmospheres...harpsichord, moog, piano, organ....with a slightly dark feel though not as much as Jacula....some bombast and other sections serene and melodic.  It was one of the very first RPI albums I purchased...Heart


yeah, such a wonderful record!Clap

It was one of my very first RPI purchases too, along with Semiramis, Concerto Grosso and Collage.

Yes, Jim, the sounds are characters in this music.
 
Andrea, I like very much that Oscar Prudente's album. I like the sound of flute mixed with the harsh guitar. Prefer this one to the one with Fossati.

I felt the same very long. The solemnity of the singer annoyed me. But the magic of the sounds proposed here made me love it

Yes, It makes me think that  there's a deep soul feeling in many RPI's albums. Showmen II, Delirium III, JET, even in Osanna's Palepoli in some ways.

Since we brought it up, I have a Nina Simone - In Concert recorded in 1964. Essential Simone stuff!

^ Great links Andrea, thanks.  The Roberto Vecchioni song was wonderful!
 
The Quella Vecchia Locanda - Sogno, Risveglio E posted above by ABB was absolutely gorgeous!  I have not gotten anything by them yet.  Saw their other album on the tube, I will have to give that spin when I get time.  Thanks.

1) Here's a cantautori's gem from the 70s:

Roberto Vecchioni - Velasquez (from the album Elisir, 1976)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=254dGmAF9Ac





2) A relatively unknown jazz-fusion work (from Neaples) by drummer Tullio De Piscopo:

Rettifilo, Ora di Punta (from the album Sotto 'en Coppa, 1975)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=619mLcrIwz0
