Gianni Fallabrino - Progetto Europa - 5508 002 Fontana - 1980 Top Notch Prog Jazz Funk Disco!

  This record is crazy good.  Obviously if you disregard any 80's library even early 80's  as not your thing, then this one won't be the one, haha.  When listening though I don't ever get a cheesy 80's vibe and actually might be the funnest Fallabrino to listen to I can recall.  When I saw the cheap price tag I thought gap filler but no way, this is a mixture of high class jazz, funk, disco and prog, my favorite genres.  Every song is entertaining and interesting for sure, it's not often you hear a band change styles from song to song like this.
   My two favorite jams on this are A5 "Insegne Luminose" one of the finest prog disco songs I've ever heard, has all the goods, female scats, fuzz, driving beats and dark bass lines.  This song is followed by A6 "Autodromo" which at times reminds me of King Zerand scoring the Cannibal Apocalypse OST.  Other notable jams are, "Leitmotiv N.1" and "Passeggiando"  but really they are all amazing.
  This one's on the same label as Fallabrino's "Musica Nella Spazio" which sells for mega bucks so don't assume it will remain cheap, every library record started off cheap don't forget, but who knows maybe I just have bad taste, haha.   My Full 320K rip from my collection and please behave yourselves and don't leach my rip or youtube links as your own, though I know some of  you still will, haha.   GET IT HERE    Chris Tillotson

Claudio Valle & Gianni Fallabrino "Music Line N.1 & N.2" Audial 001 & 002 197? Unknown Italian Library Grail!

One of my favorite librarys ever and ever so essential on the mega obscrue Italian Library, Audial.  I don't know shit about this label except that it contains this double LP full of beautiful beat driven dark prog and baroque style awesomeness!  The first LP is composed by Claudio Valle who I've heard a couple of things from before that are also amazing like his Music Scene release and his Usignolo release.  The second LP is by Gianni Fallabrino and is in very much the same style as Valle's offering.  Pretty much every song starts out mellow followed by epic drum pounding middle sections.  The way Valle lays synth over all his compositions is what sets him apart from other Baroque dudes in my opinion, but you also get all the other goodies, harpsichord, fuzz, and great chord changes.  While there are no obvious bangers on this one, Fallabrino's song on C1 is about as close as it gets to one. If you like these 2 songs then make sure you pick this up next time it hits the market cause all 20 songs are in the same vein and just as good., so enjoy a couple songs of this one.  Trades will be considered of course.  Check Pics, soundclip and youtube.  Thanks Chris
