In the beginning of 1979 label MR released the
album "Anno Demoni" in limited edition. The work consists of excerpts
composed between 1969 and 1974. It can be defined as a collection of
unpublished excerpts performed and recorded between 1974 and 1978
with the contribution of the revived Tiring, with Albert Goodman at the
percussion instruments and the electronic toms who died right after the
Brno concert. "Anno Demoni" consists of 5 excerpts and is considered by
the critics one of the most particular works of the band ANTONIUS REX. In
1992 the Mellow Records label published the CD "Anno Demoni"
docketing it by mistake as an observation of the band ANTONIUS REX by
JACULA... In reality the original work is "Anno Demoni" by ANTONIUS REX
labeled Musik Research only in vinyl. The contents though are equal.
- ANTONIO BARTOCCETTI - music, vocal, guitar, bass
- DORIS NORTON - music, vocal, piano, synth
- ALBERT GOODMAN - drums
- CHARLES TIRING - electric organ
- COLIN COLDWEIS - electric violin
JACULA GROUP - Antonio Bartoccetti, Doris Norton, Charles Tiring
ANTONIUS REX GROUP - Antonio Bartoccetti, Doris Norton, Albert

Whether the album was originally released in 1979, or whether the vinyl
and CD issues from 1992 are the true originals, is a moot point. The
band's own account of their history lists several albums (1969's "In
Cauder Semper Stat Venenum", 1974's "Neque Semper Arcum Tendit Rex"
and 1980's "Praeternatural") that have NEVER, to my knowledge, been
encountered by anyone other than in their recent reissues. Nor do they
sound like they date from the eras in which they were supposedly
recorded. Has anyone encountered originals of these LPs, or copies of
DORIS NORTON's supposed 1980 solo debut "Under Ground" or the
album she and Bartocetti supposedly cut as FIREWITCH during the
eighties? I would be fascinated to know!
