Amedeo Tommasi & Stefano Torossi – Tecnologia Elettronica (1986 / Costanza)
Nos vamos a Roma, al Studio 81. Con una serie de grabaciones, tres en total, efectuadas en 1986 con el nombre de "Música per Commenti Sonori". Ambos músicos, Tomassi & Torossi, venían del prolífico campo de músicas para televisión, films y Library Music. Eso último va a ser expuesto aquí de manera preponderante. Además, Amedeo Tomassi viene del jazz, y a veces se nota. Acompañó en algunas sesiones durante los primeros 60, al trompetista Chet Baker. Destaco de entre los tres volúmenes este "Tecnología Elettronica" por motivos obvios, dentro de esta serie. En general son piezas cortas, aunque no carentes de un denso marco de recursos. "Punti E Linee" (3'04) refleja un fidedigno acercamiento melódico alemán. De magnético carril secuencial y bella facturación armónica.

I sometimes wonder what it was like to be a music lover in the seventies. So many bands with so many records and so many of them obscure…was it as big a treat as it is today to find something incredibly rare. Blackwater Park "Dirt Box" [Spalax]
ResponderEliminarTheir lone (only one album) with 1972 this German hard rock outfit with an English vocalist,combined elements from multiple extant and budding rock subgenres to construct their complex sound: hard rock, blues-rock, jazz-rock, acid rock, prog rock, and even proto-metal.
Blackwater Park is an obscure band that emerged from the Berlin underground scene. They released their unique album "Dirt Box" in 1971, published on BASF in 1972. The group delivers a captivating, effective bluesy-heavy rock "trip" with lot of incisive guitar riffs, progressive Hammond Organ's arrangements, melodic heavy vocals and psychedelic effects that are part of the mix. His British singer had a strong voice. Especially the third and heavy track "Indian Summer", which clearly shows us the quality, engaging and virtuosity among its members. Remember that the last song is beautiful version of "For No One", composed by Lennon and McCartney,with the album 'Revolver' issued in 1966.
