NEW SOUND QUARTET - VINYL CRAZY COLOURS [VINYL]

Popis - CRAZY COLOURS [VINYL]:
The quartet featuring pianist Oscar Rocchi, bassist Gigi Cappellotto, drummer Andy Surdi and guitarist Ernesto Verardi is behind many great library music albums from the golden age, most of which released via the labels owned by Edizioni Minstrel. 'Crazy Colours' (originally marketed in 1979 via BAM label, credited to the New Sound Quartet), is quite a big effort for a library music album, since it features a whole orchestra to back the quartet and soloist Hugo Heredia (always present on sax and flute on the albums by the four musicians). In these eight tracks, orchestral disco music is the main focus: in the vein of late '70s, the biggest influences are to be found in Quincy Jones and Barry White. But the future is already there, 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.
