Hehehe, I agree Sanjuro! I would also add "Napoli Violenta" from our national Umbertone and the amazing "La Mala Ordina" with Henry Silva and Woody Strode. Year 1972, directed by Fernando Di Leo and an incredible OST by Luis Bacalov :-)) For Antonio: Gaslini collaborated with Goblin on the OST of "Profondo Rosso" and I believe also of "Suspiria".

Fabio Testi, another great of the time! :-) His performance in "Cosa Avete Fatto A Solange" is memorable, a psychological giallo-thriller with a fantastic soundtrack by Ennio Morricone (who also composed the score for another cult movie of the era, "Milano Odia: La Polizia Non Può Sparare"). It's a shame about the contemporary drift; he would have been an actor worth much more recognition.. Among the OSTs closest to Prog, we can also remember those based on Moog and the driving rhythms of Giorgio Gaslini and his legendary Goblin (notably "Profondo Rosso", "Suspiria", and "La Via Della Droga").

If you love the Funkadelic of "One Nation Under A Groove," try some solo albums by George Clinton (like "Computer Games") or Bootsy Collins, perhaps even diving into the Old-School Rap of Sugarhill Gang, Grandmaster Flash & Furious Five, Afrika Bambaataa & The Soulsonic Force, etc... Get down with the Funky grooves! :-))

I mentioned Reuben Wilson twice, no biggie :-) I take the opportunity to drop a couple more names. Idris Muhammad, a super groovy drummer with undeniable talent (his "Power Of Soul" is beautiful), Groover Washington Jr., and the smooth Jazz-Funk of the great Bob James (especially for "One," the album that contains the famous break from "Take Me To The Mardi Gras," sampled by Run DMC in "Peter Piper"). That's all.

I would say James Brown, Blackbirds, Kool & The Gang, Curtis Mayfield, Willie Hutch, New Mastersounds, Meters, and Incredible Bongo Band for the sound closest to classic Funk. If you're looking for more sophisticated, refined, and jazz-influenced material, try Reuben Wilson, Donald Byrd, Herbie Hancock, the great organists Jimmy Smith and Reuben Wilson, the early works of George Benson and Eumir Deodato released by CTI, Jack McDuff, Les McCann (especially "Layers," a groundbreaking album where a 16-track recorder was used for the first time!), Jimmy McGriff, and many others too :-)

Great Osanna, although I prefer the legendary and multi-champion theme of the OST from the cult movie "Milano Calibro 9" (the rest of the soundtrack was composed by the great Luis Bacalov). The Italian Prog scene of the time is undoubtedly rich in treasures to rediscover; I would also mention Cervello and Odissea. Great review, stargazer :-)

I would also add Blackbirds and the early productions of Kool & The Gang to the Top Of The Funk ;-) As for Sly & The Family Stone, there’s undeniably a strong sung component, but it's well balanced with upbeat and danceable rhythms that are closer to the aforementioned genre than to the soft atmospheres, like those of the Delfonics or Isaac Hayes ;-)

And then, sound terrorism for sound terrorism, I find the Locust or Agoraphobic Nosebleed to be more extreme, with the latter being closer to Grind. But I reiterate, in general, they seem to me like a bit smug excesses that are ultimately forgettable.

They also came to Naples a few years ago. Pure sonic terrorism, and frankly I prefer Sonic Youth (especially the ones from "Dirty";-)
