THE TRIP

JOE VESCOVI, ARVID "WEGG" ANDERSEN, FURIO CHIRICO

One of many English bands coming to Italy in search of success during the beat-era, The Trip included 

a young Ritchie Blackmore in their first line-up, along with founder members Andersen and Gray 

and drummer Ian Broad, but a line-up change brought two italians in, keyboards player Joe Vescovi 

from Savona (later the leading figure in the band) and drummer Pino Sinnone from Turin. 

With a stable line-up the band had a good recording deal with RCA and released their first album in 1970, 

and a single taken from it.  With Caronte, in 1971, the Trip's sound became much more original, 

with more space to Joe Vescovi's keyboards. After the second album two members quit the band, 

and the band kept on as a trio with new drummer, the young Furio Chirico from Turin, 

coming from some important rock experiences with 60's groups I Ragazzi Del Sole and Martò E I Judas. 

Atlantide, housed in an ambitious gimmix cover, obviously sees the leading role of Joe Vescovi's keyboards, 

with the sound veering toward an ELP-like style. The band was now very popular in Italy
