Van Basten II Posted December 30, 2006 Report Posted December 30, 2006 Was listening his latest offering " da questa parte del mare". Beatiful mature music with plenty of familiar musicians to name a few Bill Frisell, Greg Cohen with many EGEA veterans such as Gabriele Mirabassi, Enzo Pietrapaoli and Luciano Biondini. Kind of music you listene late in the evening with a glass of red wine in your hand. Any love for Testa Quote

seeline Posted August 18, 2008 Report Posted August 18, 2008 Hey - just found this thread via a link on the "Italian jazz" thread. I'm a big, big fan! Currently spinning "Lampo," which is probably my favorite album by him. Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted August 18, 2008 Report Posted August 18, 2008 I've been trying to find 'Lampo' for a while, after reading your earlier enthusiasms, seeline. It's been unavailable for a few years but I notice a 2008 release with that title but a different cover on Amazon: as opposed to: Seems to be the same track list. Not a remake, by any chance? Quote
seeline Posted August 18, 2008 Report Posted August 18, 2008 Yes - Le Chant du Monde was able to reissue it. So you should be able to find it pretty easily. Testa's career took off in France, and he has lots of fans there. Quote
