KRISMA - Chinese Restaurant (1978)

CHRISMA (Cristina and Maurizio) first  and KRISMA later, these are the names used by this italian duo. In the '80 well known not only in Italy but also in other nations (it seems they have a lot of fans in Japan too). Since a lot of year I hear nothing about them but recently I receive a recent photo of  a friend together with Krisma and as a background  a "Chinese Restaurant". So the connection is quite easy to do !!!

GUN CLUB - Death Party

Jeffrey Lee Pierce was one of the icons of the "loner and damned artist". All the Gun Club works (and this in a special way) are a mix  of desperation, rage and resignation. Jeffrey voice and his "wrong" way of singing seem perfect to directly transmit this feeling to the audience.
They never had an extraordinary success but  they deserve a position in the rock history.
Death Party EP (5 songs) is from 1983  and it is  my favourite one. It include  "the house on highland avenue" an unforgettable beautiful damned ballad.

CCCP - Affinità e divergente tra il compagno Togliatti e Noi

CCCP Was probably the best  punk-new wave band of '80 in Italy. The power of the sound and the live stage of the band was of high quality. The singer and front man  Giovanni Lindo Ferretti a real show man. After the experience as "CCCP" the band change the name in "CSI " and then Lindo Ferretti move to a solistic carrier also as  a writer.
This LP was one of the best at the top of the band performances.
