Ah Dad's Army Erik, brilliant! One of my favourite TV series too. I have every episode on DVD. Now how did they get in an Italian prog thread?

Hello Bogdan, welcome back to the show that never ends, ladies and gentlemen, Italian progrock
 About Soulengine, I got this e-mail from the management ( [email protected] ) :
Hello Erik, I prepared and sent you the promo package, I think you'll receive it within 3 days. Thank you for your interest, hope you'll enjoy what SoulenginE are working on. The promo cd features the
unmastered long version of "Polheim" (the song included in Purgatorio) and a demo version of "Rain Flower", another track from the upcoming full-length. Recording sessions are concluded, and soon it will be time for mix. Let's keep in touch and prog on. Ciao! Giorgio Bertini I wrote this about their music on the 4-CD box Dante's Pulgatorio, see:
Ciao

Well Paul, fellow BJH fan, this is an Italian progrock thread but ... what an inspired and Mellotron
drenched
BJH gig it was and indeed, John Lees looked like a bank member, I was thinking of mr. Mainwaring from Dad's Army, one of my favorite TV series in the Seventies   By the way Paul, you are right: it was a close look at the BJH gig, the photographer and me (once we met at Pinkpop 1984 for the Marillion performance) were standing in the front row, only a few meters away from the band members.

Erik, Great to hear BDM are working on a new album; I'll look forward to that one.
Just had a look at the BJH pics...excellent and very good quality. Obviously a very close view. I see John Lees has come straight to the gig from his job at the bank.

Marcel, I hope this tour will be captured on DVD, in comparison with the 2006 DVD, BJH played more 'classic tracks' and the atmosphere was great, Woolly acted like a member of the Monty Python team Today I received an e-mail from the management of the promising new Italian band Soulengine (one of the best compositions on the Dante II 4-CD), they will send me a promo package
Il Bacio Delle Medusa send this e-mail:
The new album will focus on the theme of the Crusades, with references to the modern situation...
We are being drafted, and I think that the wonderful ideas and the variety of music will make an album extremely interesting and mature! However I belive that we'll need to work calmly....we'll have to treat every single datalis at the best way! Best wishes Erik, keep in touch, and thanks for all! Eva and BDM! PS: If you want, you can see our videos of our gigs on youtube: Ciao

Great pics, Erik. Too bad I couldn't come myself.
And Trons are always a good thing! |

Hello Paul, good to see that your thread about my Italian progrock article has been reanimated by more posts in the last two days than the entire previous month!
Thanks Alberto for your compliments
 Marcel, here's link with pictures from that Barclay James Harvest gig I recently watched:
 The Mighty Tron (M400 model)
This man is responsible for the great vintage keyboard sound on the excellent
Pandora debut album, I love that emotion:

I was about to go there as well, but my friend(s) couldn't make it. I was already afraid I would have missed something. Good that you enjoyed it though. |

Thanks Bob, I haven't disappeared totally
Well Marcel, perhaps the next Progwalhalla evening is at my home, thanks for your kind words
 About the Il Bacio Delle Medusa their e-mail to me, I have posted it here on PA because I have put so much time and energy in my Italian progrock article that I can't resist this way of ego-gratification, multo grazie
By the way, I am just back from a mindblowing Barclay James Harvest gig, the super enthousiastic crowd (mainly 45+ men) was flooded by the sound of Woolly his M400 Mellotron and treated on most of their classics like Mockingbird, Child Of The Universe, Suicide, She Said and Poor Man's Moody Blues

Yes, welcome back
! And it's good to know about ProgWalhalla evening. I'm not on Hans' mailing list anymore, I think. I really would like to come one day but it's difficult for me if it's still in Zaandam. That's a 4 hour drive from where I live in Belgium, and a 4 hour drive back the same evening because on Sunday morning most of the times I have to work. The Hague would be much better for me: that means a 6 hour drive in total, and that's what I do sometimes to visit friends and family.But hey, if I can make it or not: good to see you back here, and keep up all the good work! |
