VISITORS (AUSTRALIAN WAVE)

This is a very special LP: Really a rarity. It was in the '80 that the "Australian Wave" invaded also Europe.
Here ia a link to this important piece of that history.

SAVAGE REPUBLIC

From L.A. area a cult band. I thought not existing since long time but I realize still in activity. A new CD (1938) is dated 2007. Attached  some link with complete information (and video). The first one is in italian an give a complete history of the band.  Listening to "1938" it is not possible to think to first Pink Floyd period !!!! and another milestone is "Ivory Cost" (Tragic Figures 1982) soundtrack of one of my favourite radio station at that time.

NEW VOICES (for me)

Listening the new Massive Attack CD (Heligoland), I was curious to know something new about the wonderful voice  of some tracks.

 It was this way I discover Martina Topley Bird !!!!

A wonderful voice mixed with minimalism music. The 2010 CD (Some Place Simple ) is something special.

Here is an example:

WALL OF VOODOO (call of the west)

This was another milestone. At that time the techno-western of Wall of Voodoo was a shock.
