Errata Corrige

Siegfried, Il Drago E Altre Storie (+dvd)

On CD, this is a reissue of the sole album by a progressive band from Turin, Italy. After having recorded two demos the band decided to break-up in the mid-'70s. Nevertheless, they then visited the studio to record some of their songs, for memory's sake. Those tracks ended up on the band's LP, which was posthumously released in 1976. Featuring fantasy-inspired lyrics and dreamy soft-prog atmospheres, this album is of interest for fans of f.i. the first album by Marie Celeste and Pierrot Lunaire. A privately pressed and very rare album, 'Siegfried, Il Drago E Altre Storie' was the first and only LP released by this Turin band, that was active from 1974 and that had previously recorded two tapes and some tracks posthumously released on CD in the early '90s. The band was initially a trio with no name, then a quartet that only took its name Errata Corrige when newcomer Mike Abate replaced previous guitarist Cardellino. Two demo-tapes, entitled 'Da Mago A Musicista' and 'Saturday Il Cavaliere' were released by the early line-ups. After their latest concert at Teatro Carignano in Turin in June 1975 and the following breakup, the musicians decided to record in a studio some of their compositions as a document of their past activity. These recordings were issued on LP in 1976, with fantasy-inspired lyrics and dreamy soft-prog atmospheres not unlike Celeste in their first album or Pierrot Lunaire. More complex arrangements and rhythm changes make this an attractive and original sounding record.
