MARIO SCHIFANO - LE STELLE - RED VINYL ITALIAN PROG. released 1968 in Italy as a private press on BDS M&F 001.
ORIGINALE PRIIMISSIMA STAMPA ROSSA
Dedicato a….
MONO
THIS IS ONE OF 50 COPIES EXISTING IN ALL THE WORLD.
An incredibly rare album, printed in a small pressing of probably around 500/1000 copies, the first batch of which (reputedly 50 copies, but probably a bit more) were on red vinyl.
Little known in the world until a few years ago, this album is probably the most wanted and expensive italian album nowadays.
Formed by the pop artist Mario Schifano (who was not a musician, by the way), in the same way that Andy Warhol acted with Velvet Underground, this band from Rome was created in 1967 and released their first and only album the same year.
Bass player Crescentini, from Venice, had briefly played before in the last incarnation of New Dada, a very popular garage-beat group.
Gatefold cover, painted by Schifano himself, the album contains a side-long improvised track on side 1, with the long title of Le ultime parole di Brandimarte, dall'Orlando Furioso, ospite Peter Hartman e fine (da ascoltare con TV accesa senza volume), a surreal title just like the track itself. Closer to avantgarde or contemporary music performances than to rock, the stunning track gives a good idea of what the group's music and live concerts were about. Side 2 is more conventional, with five short tracks with psych influences.
Nello Marini (keyboards)
Urbano Orlandi (guitar)
Giandomenico Crescentini (bass)
Sergio Cerra (drums)
