    The Cathedral at night remains a superlative song; I met it last month in Domodossola, its hometown. And it was nice to talk about the new album coming out in these last few weeks. Always a pleasure to listen to it.

    Wowwww the Duomo at night, damn.... I met him by pure chance 7 years ago in a rest area. He seemed almost surprised that someone greeted him. Very kind... a great guy even in these circumstances.

    Last month I was in Domodossola and I found him outside a café, drinking a coffee; I greeted him since I knew him, and he immediately invited me to sit down for a chat about the new album, about the recordings that took place between Italy and New York. All with that simplicity that I have always associated with him. Well done, Alberto.

    And if I meet him, what happens? Do we fight? And if he meets Ribaldo, what does he do, hang himself in despair? :D

    Precisely because it is exceptional, 4 stars are too few. We are talking about a pinnacle work of the Italian progressive era. A cornerstone of the genre. A true masterpiece. 5 stars for sure.

    They come very close to the top. I accept your opinion, of course. Music is beautiful also for this...

    Outsider to a certain extent: what other white band, and moreover SCOTTISH, was able to outshine American black music 40 years ago, when Pick Up The Pieces was firmly at the top of Billboard's Top 200? And the two subsequent albums are a solid confirmation, of immense class.

    Yes, of course, when I wrote "outsider," I imagined it could be misleading, but let's just say that, unfortunately, not everyone knows who I am. I'm talking about those who "chew" on music a bit.

    Unfortunately, I have reassessed them quite a bit (downwards), especially this one. It pains me to say it, but I find it embarrassing in many parts. What a shame, just a few years ago they were my listening companions for entire afternoons!

    Well, as far as I'm concerned, I hope I don't end up like Darth Aignan :D
  • Can I ask why?..

    a lot is due to the fact that I can hardly stand the sounds and arrangements of prog anymore, not to mention that kind of prog with lyrics about wizards, knights, and other random nonsense... like this album, for instance. Furthermore, you can add that the recording quality is truly scandalous, and this is a fact, not an opinion. Which, of course, might not even have been their fault, but if I'm listening to punk or garage it's one thing (actually, I listen to those genres precisely because they are intentionally poorly recorded)… but if I have to listen to prog that’s also recorded in a terrible way, for me it's a big NO. Lastly, I have to say that they are still very rough here, even in their compositions; some passages almost make me feel pity. For what it’s worth, I can still handle a bit of Darwin and appreciate "Io sono nato libero" (I think that's what it's called).

    This was a great record. When Beck was a totally laid-back and stoned 20-something 'slacker' recording with a busted guitar with 4 strings, a Bontempi organ, and a 4-track tape recorder. Too bad it won't last much longer...

    Same here, madcat. In fact, if I really have to say it, my favorite of all was that chaos of 'Stereopathetic Soulmanure', which came out roughly around the same time as this...but independently.
Beny Moré: De Verdad

Known as "El barbaro del ritmo," born in 1919 in Santa Isabel de las Lajas (Cuba). He was the king of mambo.
Big Audio Dynamite: No. 10, Upping St.
CD Audio I have it ★★★★
Strummer, after COMBAT ROCK, distances himself from the Clash, first Topper Headon and then Mick Jones. The latter forms Big Audio Dynamite. Their sound incorporated funk, dance, rap, reggae, and punk samples. In their 1986 album, Strummer co-writes some tracks with Jones.
Well-crafted psychedelic work.

    de marga my dear, I haven’t had time for a joint review that we will definitely do... this weekend was quite a mess and I’m basically just coming back now after a fleeting return home late last night. As soon as I find a moment, I’ll get it ready :-) About the album, well...

    @Silas: no problem, buddy. By the way, I saw that Point Blank has already been reviewed; although calling that a review with those three lines seems like a stretch: one more reason to make it right…24 Hour Bullshit!!!

    to say it's seminal is an understatement...
