Colonna - s/t. 1980 Harmony. Also 1980 Box (Germany)
Another album that probably sits outside the margins of our list. But what a cover, eh? I received this CD-R from Midwest Mike years ago. Worth featuring I think.
Colonna is one Maurizio Colonna, who is
today recognized as one of Italy's finest Spanish guitar players. This
is his debut album, which naturally enough prominently features Colonna
on the acoustic Spanish guitar. His exemplary playing is augmented by
vocals, Moog synths, and rock/disco beats. He has many more albums which I've not heard to date. This
one sports a pretty cool cover (a flying bull and a spaceship), and I
could see this falling prey to the Italian progressive rock collector,
though it has no stylistic similarities whatsoever. Well done for what
it is. I'll include it here for those Italian prog treasure hunters, so
they know what they're getting into. Also worth noting the exceptional
supporting cast: Roberto Colombo, Tullio De Piscopo, Mark Harris (Napoli
Centrale), Bernardo Lanzetti (PFM, Acqua Fragile) and bassist Ares
Tavolazzi (Area).
Priority: none
