Description: | Motore Immobile by Giusto Pio, released 29 January 2021.
This version of Motore Immobile comes as a 1xLP.
The vinyl is pressed as a opaque disc. - Soave present the first vinyl reissue of Giusto Pio's Motore Immobile, originally released in 1979. One of the most striking documents of Italy's minimalist movement, Giusto Pio's Motore Immobile is a masterwork with few equivalents. Produced by Franco Battiato in 1979, at the outset of a long and fruitful period of collaboration between the two composers, and issued by the legendary Cramps Records, it's triumphs were met by silence, before falling from view. Emerging on vinyl for the first time since it's original pressing, Motore Immobile now sits within a reappraisal of a large neglected body of efforts made by the Italian avant-garde during the second half of the 1970s and early '80s. It is singular, but not alone. It resonates within a collective world of shimmering sound, one familiar to fans of Battiato, Lino Capra Vaccina, Luciano Cilio, Roberto Cacciapaglia, Francesco Messina, and Raul Lovisoni. An exercise in elegant restraint - note and resonance held to the most implicit need. Everything between root and embellishment has been stripped away. A sublime organ drone, against interventions of deceptively simple structural complexity - executed by piano, violin, and voice. A sonic sculpture reaching heights which few have touched. A thing of beauty and an album as perfect as they come. The reemergence of Motore Immobile heralds what is unquestionably one of the most important reissues of 2017.Limited Edition Reissue of 1979's LP [r3418244]

Purtroppo la ristampa Soave non ha rispettato la grafica originale di Gianni Sassi. La copertina era costituita da quattro mattonelle beige e la prima in alto a sinistra riportava volutamente le tracce di sporco di una scarpa. Per la ristampa hanno pensato invece che si trattasse di sporco sulla copertina e le tracce sono state rimosse, così non si evince più che si tratta di 4 mattonelle. La costa del disco inoltre è stampata in senso contrario rispetto all'originale. |
