The album is now considered as one of the rarest of the italian prog era, and is halfway between late 60′s psych-influenced pop and prog....e.g. in the great long suite “Missione Sirio 2222″is one of the best tracks, while most of the others are in the 3-minute typical length of the time. Some collectors consider it as one of the best in the italian prog field, others think it’s still not a mature group’s work. Without doubt is very important one.<br /><br />Music on the first plate is delicious with elements of progressive rock. Were composed of two guitars, bass and drums, but they pulled in the direction of something bigger, then suddenly a band (well, maybe I exaggerated – string quartet), harpsichord, vocals …. Noteworthy are also the compositions – like a short and simple, but richly often with surprising changes of pace, interspersed with great guitar solos. Album has now 43 years, and feel great in her freshness, joy and passion for the game, the elements are so often missing in the new, sterile productions. As usual in the case of Italian bands, some listeners may offend vocal, but it is a matter of habit. Surely this is not a record of Which would start getting used to the Italian rock scene, but it is not a record that can be omitted. It is difficult to recommend it to someone – those who like Italian rock of the time, you know and love it, fans of the sweet neoprogresu not let her touch even with a stick … However, I would encourage her to learn all those who like any old stuff – it’s a piece of history and a starting point. <br /><br />The first record, completely different from the published two years later, the ultra-progressive YS,album released in 1972 on Polydor (YS,from the name of a legendary town in Brittany), is a masterpiece, giving the group the success on which they deserved. Inexplicably an english-sung version, ready to release, was never issued,contains nine-heavy psychedelic hard hendrix compositions based on the resonance of intense party distorting guitar, bass and drums. <br /><br />Group disbanded in 1973 after a final single, Gianni Leone having a short solo career under the name of Leo Nero, the others went to live in Sweden and disappeared from the italian music scene.<br /><br />''Sirio 2222'' is it very good debut album in the climate – Gleemen ,Garybaldi. I recommend.<br />I am following the hearings this many times but I can’t loose the opportunity to say thanks Ankh this post here…many thanks to my friend!adamus67https://www.blogger.com/profile/07035959023698485029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1543865206706113243.post-12706971181632231672013-05-19T18:29:49.118+02:002013-05-19T18:29:49.118+02:00To płyta, która z radością w pamięci jako pamiątka...To płyta, która z radością w pamięci jako pamiątka odbywanej niegdyś intensywnej podróży po historii włoskiego rocka. Poznałem w jej trakcie także ich płytę następną, "Ys", której zawartość również prowokuje konieczne do niej powroty. Jestem zdania, że w obszarze tzw: rocka progresywnego muzycy z tego kraju pozostawili po sobie sporo dobroci. Pomimo wyrażanej na łamach Dzikich Świętych niechęci do tej stylistyki sądzę, że warto zapoznać czytelników i słuchaczy bloga z próbkami dźwięków takich grup jak Procession, Quella Vecchia Loccanda, Banco Del Muttuo Soccorso czy Pierrot Lunaire. To z tej półki mało lubianej przez Dzikich. Z odbytej wycieczki zapamiętałem też m.in hard-rockowe Flea i Osage Tribe, zbliżony stylistycznie do debiutu Baletto Di Bronzo I Teoremi, awangardowe Picchio Dal Pozzo, Area i Stormy Six a ze spraw bliższych czasowo magiczne wtulanki w ciszę grup Madrigali Magri i Bacchi Da Pietra. Tp wszystko to jedynie wylapane naprędce dowody na to, że kraj Felliniego w zakresie muzyki dał światu sporo autentycznej trwałej dobroci.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1543865206706113243.post-54110195010645173302013-05-18T16:25:12.980+02:002013-05-18T16:25:12.980+02:00@ @ @ @<a href="http://www23.zippyshare.com/v/76766131/file.html" rel="nofollow">@</a> <a href="http://dfiles.eu/files/j65rlqphy" rel="nofollow">@</a> <a href="http://www.crocko.com/F35981AFEA8F4623A1BB102DD32591FD/IBDB_S.rar" rel="nofollow">@</a> <a href="http://uploadhero.co/dl/esaXubXm" rel="nofollow">@</a>Ankhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00699678453041302903noreply@blogger.com
