NEW TROLLS - CD FS

Popis - FS:
Papersleeve edition. In 1981, with a line-up that reduced from 6 to 4 elements due to D'Adamo (bassist and lyricist) and Usai (keyboardist, who started an unsuccessful solo career), De Scalzi, Di Palo (the new bass player), Belloni (lead guitarist) and Belleno wrote "FS", a back-to-the-roots release, even in the shape of a concept album. The main theme of the lyrics is a journey (FS stands for 'Ferrovie dello Stato', the Italian national railway society) on an hypothetical train and the meeting with everyone is doing the same trip as the narrator. "FS" is overall above the average quality level of the same years releases. "FS" is a very good LP, thanks to its return to the dear old concept album formula, but also for its great mixture of many different elements, from hard rock to songwriting, from classic to reggae (!). It just misses some outstanding tunes, but remains a good and nostalgic listen, and one of the few albums who really managed to enlighten us for sure in those years.
