Description: Rome was, of course, the pulsing heart of Italian library music – it is the place where tv andmovies are made, so editors and musicians tend to gather there. But we must not forget whatwas happening in the library music world, at the same time, in Milan – where there was avery active music industry, but leaning more on the pop and jazz side. The Roman style wasmore connected to the classic and orchestral tradition, but the musicians from Milan adopteda more urban and international approach, in the vein of contemporary pop with some USjazz-funk instrumental deviations. It’s not a coincidence that among the most active artists inthe library world we find people who – in the Seventies and Eighties – played in manyrecords by Mina, Fabrizio De André, Gaber, Branduardi and Fausto Papetti. The quartetfeaturing pianist Oscar Rocchi, bassist Gigi Cappellotto, drummer Andy Surdi and guitaristErnesto Verardi is behind many great library music albums from the golden age, most ofwhich released via the labels owned by Edizioni Minstrel. “Crazy Colours” (originallymarketed in 1979 via BAM label, credited to the New Sound Quartet), is quite a big effort fora library music album, since it features a whole orchestra to back the quartet and soloistHugo Heredia (always present on sax and flute in the albums by the four musicians). In theseeight tracks, orchestral disco music is the main focus: in the vein of late Seventies, thebiggest influences are to be found in Quincy Jones and Barry White. But the future is alreadythere, since a few synths can be heard in the mix. To this landscape, Rocchi, Cappellotto,Surdi and Verardi add their personality, their experience in the pop field and the love for jazz– all with that peculiar Italian feel. TRACKLIST:A1.
