Cervello (“Brain”), the Italian progressive rock band from Naples,released their first album Melos in 1973, a brilliant Italian symphonic progressive rock production, known for the inclusion of flutes and saxophones to replace the usual keyboards and mellotron of other progressive works. ProgRock-fusion virtuoso Corrado Rustici (Nova), then 17 years old, has since worked as Producer and guitarist with some ot the greatest artists… including, among others, Eric Clapton, Miles Davis, Aretha Franklin, Herbie Hancock, Sinead O’Connor, Phil Collins and Luciano Pavorotti
Cervello regrouped in 2017 to perform at Tsutaya O-East, Tokyo, Japan. This recording capured that performance that included Alto Saxophone, Soprano Saxophone, Flute, Vocals – Giulio D’Ambrosio; Bass Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Recorder, Vocals – Antonio Spagnolo; Drums – Davide Danzy Devito; Electric Guitar, Vocals – Corrado Rustici; Keyboards – Sasa’ Priore; Lead Vocals – Virginio Simonelli
“Rustici’s career has encompassed nearly every genre of modern and postmodern musical expression…Rustici seems to be well on his way to defining the deeper musical contours for the coming ‘trans-modern’ world – a world in which, he explains, the traditional distinctions between artist, music and listener will steadily become integrated into something wholly new”. – WIE
