Pierre, we're not sure what it is.  Some mixture of chemicals molded into a delicious carcinogenic treat.  Awesome stuff though.  Tongue

Pierre, that might have been the recent movie `Zombieland'! I seem to remember that Woody Harrelson was searching for the last remaining Twinkie supplies and fighting through the undead hordes to get to them!

The Twinkie is basically indestructable except when consumed, highly addictive and has been known to cure the munchies Big smile.  I heard that they are sold out in stores and people are selling them for over $100 dollars now that they are going belly up...so to speak.  I think they also were referenced in a Ghost Buster movie.
 
Oh, ABB, I got the whole "Roller" album, no individual downloads.

Love this one! Proof that the Canterbury trades still are alive and kicking. Not only because of the involvement of Monsieur Sinclair, but the whole vibe of the thing oozes Canterbury to these ears.

Hey Ho Michael and Pierre! The first album is just as good. One should preferably have bought it, back when it was released(like some of us ahem....), because it is fairly pricey at the moment. Still, it's a very cool record and worth grabbing a hold of imo.

Sigh.....Now we're going to hear one of those `I'm one of those EARLY fans who've liked them for years, before they became popular....' speeches, right, Dave?!

It's OK, I think you get three of those....use them wisely!

I thought I did thatBig smile
Aaaaaaaanyway and all kidding aside, I was listening to some obscure, and rather unfairly obscured releases at that, a couple of days ago, and they got me thinking about my mate from down under. Furthermore, both of these albums are from Italy, so they fit in around here like a tranny at a papal inauguration.

Firstly, this one:
Whoops, sorry for the huge pic! 
Franco Leprino's Integrati.....Disintegrati. A bonafide masterpiece of electronic music, if you ask me. Here's the whole album for you:

And secondly:


Both these albums feature a clear imaginative inspiration drawn from the early German pioneers, but they've got much more under their belts. Personally I hear a lot of the same stuff that fuelled the RPI 'genre' and the folky bands. Classic guitar arpeggios and romantic bittersweet piano orchestrations, all of which fit perfectly within the progressive electronic sphere. If you ever come across either of these albums Michael, please don't hesitateWink

Hmmm, so they're Italian related AND electronic....I LOVE IT!

I'll give them a listen, Dave, thank you, your descriptions of them sound very interesting! I'll get back to you once I've given them a spin!
