ITALY - PHILIPS 6323 007 first original press
Original 1970 first pressing in nice gatefold cover...
The very first (and arguably BEST) Le ORME album..at the time a powerful unique keyboard driven band, very early adventurous progressive...
Back in 1969 they released their first album, "Ad Gloriam", which finds the band exploring pop/psychedelia. Realizing the style of that music was
changing, in part to the rise of progressive rock, they decided to go prog, and the results is "Collage", which is the first in a series of albums that would serve them
well for their next three releases. They moved to Philips from a label called Car Juke Box, and reduced their lineup to a three piece with Claudio Galieti and
Nino Smeraldi now out of the picture, leaving the band with bassist/guitarist/vocalist Aldo Tagliapietra, keyboardist Toni Pagliuca, and drummer Michi dei Rossi...
The music is here is more RAW (has that live "in the studio" feel) than their albums that followed and there are some extended
organ solos and odd experiments that will turn some collectos "ON" and might turn some off ( like those who enjoy Lp's "Uomo di Pezza" and "Felona e Sorona".)
Pagliuca's keyboard setup here is just Hammond organ and clavinet. The title track is very busy like the best parts of The NICE, with some classical
themes played on a clavinet. "Cemento Armato" consists of a lenghty organ solo. The organ here is heavily fuzzed and oddly for a LE ORME album --
One can't help but be reminded of Mike Ratledge of SOFT MACHINE or Vincent Crane of Atomic Rooster. You may have never imagined LE ORME sounding like this!
More shock arrives with this experiment called "Evasione Totale" -- reminding of many of the Krautrock groups of the time. It's full of spacy organ, experiments with echo effects, complex passages, and love how Aldo Tagliapietra gives us nice bass work to go with it! Hard to believe what they were doing just two years before ("Ad Gloriam").
There's a psychedelic experiment called "Immagini", dominated by organ, and complete with Tagliapietra's voice electronically modified, as common with late '60s psychedelia.
But one thing for sure is this is something you won't mistake for "Ad Gloriam". "Collage" was the album that helped launch the Italian prog scene,
and a truly underrated album then and 40 years later of much on-going sought after interest...
