W H I T E L A B E L P R O M O T I O N A L 1972 ORIGINAL DYNAMIC DOOMY PROG PSYCH MASTERPIECE IL BALLETTO DI BRONZO YS GERMAN - POLYDOR - 2480 127 PROMO LOOKS PLAYS FANTASTIC MEGA-RARE WHITE LABEL PROMOTIONAL Never seen before in this format, gotta be very few copies around Wildly sought after legendary Lp...this is a little seen GERMAN 1972 FIRST PRINTING with laminated singlefold cover as a promo ...
The mighty IL BALLETTO DI BRONZO Without a doubt, one of the GREAT Italian progressive-rock favorites.
The overall atmosphere is dark and tense and the musicianship is absolutely devastating At times the album is similar to a gigantic italian version of King Crimson s 21st Century Schizoid Man - leaving the listener exhausted and breathless at each listen...
YS is complete musical lunacy at it s finest.
Dark, Theatrical, extremely complex and HEAVY, spastic disjointed organ guitar thunder with powerful vocals, and a lot of dynamics.
The music is formulated through the master keyboard hands of Gianni Leone organ, piano, mellotron, moog, spinet, celesta and the result is an intricate and sinister atmosphere drenched with blood because of that dark and exciting shifting moods frenetic playing.
Electric guitar by Lino Aiello many times is the icing on the cake, being so aggressive and apocalyptical The background female choir vocals are often both soft and sinister and seem to be the crying of the Angels Chorus The lyrics are really far-out, telling the story of a man who starts a journey, all alone, and, during it, he has 3 meetings: one with a dead man ivy covered and with ripped ears another dead old man with thorns infixed in his eyes and finally he meets The Death in person, but he s not able to talk because of his mouth is tired and motionless and there is no light anymore Three chilling scenes, three meetings about someone who listens to the WRONG voice, and follows something negative and contrary to the positive triad of good Trinity .
Perhaps the album is about suicide but who can tell? The lyrics are dark and not with a direct understandable message - Lino Ajello / guitar - Gianni Leone / vocals, piano, organ, Moog, Mellotron, spinet, celeste - Vito Manzari / bass - Gianchi Stringa / drums Introduzione 15:11 Primo Incontro 3:27 Secondo Incontro 3:06 Terzo Incontro 4:33 Epilogo 11:30 CONDITION: The sleeve: The laminated cover is solid with little past handling, collection worthy clean EX excellent rating ...no problems past a little past light handling ...
