THINGS TO LIVE!

A New beginning was Massimo's debut solo album released in 2022. Massimo is an accomplished pianist and keyboard player from Rome,and delivers his solo album track perfect in a live setting accompanied by a great band and vocalist Germana Noage. Intro is an atmospheric beginning -cinematic like and leads into Oh Father which has heavenly guitars and synths and features Germana's wonderful vocals. This is an album to listen from start to finish - no keyboard or guitar pyrotechnics but emotive,personal songs - mostly short - which are thought provoking with rich melodies. In November was a favourite of mine on the debut album which Germana does vocals solo - I think it would be good for Massimo to duet on this track. Out of this World is very atmospheric - a call to arms for ordinary people to overcome dictators and adversity -very topical ! Germana's voice is very soulful on Things to Live. She is a wonderful vocalist who can rock as much as operatic style. Family Business is a great band track: A great intro from guitar and keys and a snarling organ above which Germana rocks out at 3.31 and has a big finale -excellent ! New Beginning begins slowly but increases in tempo with Massimo's piano in Part 2 increasing the pace. Creatures of the Night is a great finale : Part 1 is very operatic and Part 2 delivers a strong guitar intro and powers through to the finish. The three acoustic tracks are slower renditions of previous tracks. Massimo's piano and Germana's voice really shine here. Mention must be made of Roberto Falcinelli and Simone Cozzetto on guitars,Michele Raspanti on bass and Andres Gualco on drums who are note perfect on this live album. Relax and enjoy this live album whilst we await the second studio album 'The Next Dream'
