[Prato Verde] PV-011 - Prato verde (Nora Orlandi et al.)
« on: March 31, 2019, 02:17:51 PM »

As teased in this thread, I recently received a parcel containing three mysterious, sleeveless records courtesy of a generous benefactor, who was nice enough to lend them to me so they could be digitized and shared here!
Many, many thanks to you! It's a real treat to be able to have a rarity like this on-hand.

This is the first of the three - and what a rarity! This is one of the obscure Edizioni Musicali Volga LPs, each (confusingly) released on their own one-off label in very limited quantities.
The record features works by none other than Nora Orlandi(!) ("Attide"), notable RCA Italiana engineer Guido Podestà ("Kordes") and a few others with whom I am previously unfamiliar; Orlandi's late husband Franco Di Biagio ("Tianas"), son Gianfranco Di Biagio ("Nogin") and one Andrea Dorigo ("Sorpais"). With a wonderful blend of electronic and acoustic instruments, it sounds to me like this LP may have been recorded on Amedeo Tommasi's wonderful collection of keyboards and electronic gear, and features what I assume is Orlandi herself on wordless vocal.

Enjoy some great, calm moods well suited for a laid-back Sunday :)

Wooooooowww! Can't wait to hear this! Love everything I've heard with Nora Orlandi, and those Delfino/Volga editions are routinely amazing, particularly the ones featuring Tommasi and his electronics.

Thank you so very much for this rarity, Mr, I'll return soon with thoughts.  ;D

     Thank you Mr and Mr. Mysterioso! This was a bit more mellow than I expected, but I'm happy to have had the chance to hear it.

Any chance to refresh the links?
AN-012 - Angelico and CL.10 - Colori just brilliant, think this maybe another fantastic music.
