Great minds think of bikes, indeed.
Another act with a modern sound to it is SKE. 1000 Autumni is a most wonderful album. |

Thanks guys for the tips. I had a quick listen to Ergonon on Spotify and has left a good first impression, will explore them further.
Can't locate any samples of SKE, but had a listen to Yugen which is the band Paolo Ske Botta plays in and it is a bit too eccentric for my tastes. Any other Italian bands perhaps a little heavier than Ergonon and with English lyrics? Here is a sample from Not a Good Sign as an example of an Italian band I really like (this is one of my favourite tracks for 2015). |

I've just read of the sudden death of Gianfranco Golzi for a heart attack. How sad

Good news from BTF
 A privately pressed and very rare album, Siegfried, il drago e altre storie was the first and only LP released by this Turin band, that was active from 1974 and that had previously recorded two tapes and some tracks posthumously released on CD in early 90's.
The band was initially a trio with no name, then a quartet that only took its name Errata Corrige when newcomer Mike Abate replaced previous guitarist Cardellino. Two demo-tapes, entitled Da mago a musicista and Saturday il cavaliere were released by the early line-ups. After their latest concert at Teatro Carignano in Turin in June 1975 and the following breakup, the musicians decided to record in a studio some of their compositions as a document of their past activity. These recordings were issued on LP in 1976, with fantasy-inspired lyrics and dreamy soft-prog atmospheres not unlike Celeste in their first album or Pierrot Lunaire. More complex arrangements and rhythm changes make this an attractive and original sounding record. Band members play a long list of instruments with good musicianship. The Cd is a new recording of the old songs + a DVD with a bonus track. TRACK LIST: 1) VIAGGIO DI SAGGEZZA 2) DEL CAVALIERE CITADEL E DEL DRAGO DELLA FORESTA DI LUCANOR a) Il Richiamo b) Nella Foresta c) Il Drago d) Fuggi Citadel e) Ritorno al Villaggio 3) SIEGFRIED (Leggenda) 4) SIEGFRIED (Mito) 5) DAL LIBRO DI BORDO DELL’ADVENTURE |

I hope that they will have worked on the sound. The original was recorded in my grandmother kitchen.

It's a recsent new recording of the Album by the reformed band so it will sound rather different.
(will get it soon). New album by Metamorfosis coming up soon... European issue of the new Arti & Mestieri out now (minus one track to the Japanese one)

Lino Ajello and Marco Cecioni (both original members of Balletto di Bronzo) have joined forces
with Gianni Leone to release an Album called "CUMA 2015 D.C." soon. I don't know if this runs under "Balletto di Bronzo" as BdB is still out there more or less as Gianni Leone's band. |

An awesome Album even if it's just bits and pieces it shows so much potential for that band. Would have loved to see what would happend if they had the chance to record a regular Album. Some members of the band played a track (or two) of that Album live in Rome last year.
