The duo's best album, and the place to start beyond the hits compilations. Up to the release of A Song for You, the Carpenters' success had seemed an awesome if somewhat fluky phenomenon, built on prodigious talent, some beautifully crafted pop sensibilities, and a very fortunate choice of singles - their albums Close to You and Carpenters, though they were top-sellers, both seemed just a bit thrown together. Then came A Song for You, a seemingly unified concept album written and recorded during a frantic period of concert activity, and brimming with lovely musical ideas even more lovingly executed, laced with good humor, and enough hits of its own to have established any artist's career on its own. And even in between the hits, the album was built on material that could have made a whole career for anyone…

Museo Rosenbach was formed in the early '70s in Italy. In 1973 they released "Zarathustra" (about Nietzsche's superman), this album is still considered as one of the masterpieces in the world of progrock. Unfortunately, the group broke up the following year. The group re-formed in the 1990s and released the album "Exit" in 2000.
"Zarathustra" (1973) was more or less regarded as an album created by fascists due to its extreme cover and lyrics and Museo Rosenbach disbanded after some concerts during the summer of 73' with Giancarlo Golzi continuing as a member of the Pop Rock act Matia Bazar.Fast forward some 25 years Golzi along with Alberto Moreno re-established the group with new members Andrea Biancheri on vocals, Marco Balbo on guitars, Marioluca Bariona and Sergio Cossu both on keyboards…

One of the great nu jazz album of year 2010. Album includes three quite different kind of compositions,very professionally (and successfully) mixed in one release. Opener composition is great slightly dreamy melodic and a bit melancholic song with soling trumpet,strongly influenced by Niels Petter Molvaer. There will be some more compositions in similar key on this album, and they are all big positive value of this release. Not too much original, they still really have their own signature ( let say Molvaer without Nordic clear cool air around and with warmer sound).
Second song "Let Me Go!" is quite different - it contains female vocals (Sophie Hunger) and sound more pop-oriented. There is one more song with same vocalist ("Dirge"), with leading piano sound and openly pop-song structure…

Decameron produced four albums between 1973 and 1976 (Some discographies listed a recording called "Beyond the Light" but this never saw release). This long CD contains all of the third disk and a most of the worthiest pieces on the fourth. Considering their short recording career, Decameron exhibited a fairly wide range of musical styles and talent as they flitted from label to label. But it was all loosely in the British folk rock realm with more than a casual nod to the lighter elements of progressive rock in vogue at the time. The enigmatic style of that genre is displayed in the stunning "All the Best Wishes", the reverent "The Ungodly", the intensely melodic "Journey's End" bathed in mellotron, and "The Deal". The lighter pieces are equally engaging, such as "Saturday" about rolling down the windows and blasting the stereo and shouting obscenities at the market crowd, "Road to the Sea" with its rollicking rhythms and musical and lyrical allusions to the nautical, "Fallen Over", and "Tomorrow's pantomime".

The music written by Angelo Badalamenti, Jerry Goldsmith, Phil Collins, Kate Bush, The Doors and many others.
