Italian composer Giorgio Gaslini has a huge output as you can see, and moreover he is blessed with a wikipedia page. I'd be curious to know if there is something worth hearing somewhere in that stuff. On the other hand his quintet didn't make too much, this Mini Jazz Klub its first production being a bit stuck in the trad. jazz territory versus fusion I found a slight bit disappointing. The last track, Praga Song:

ReplyDeleteGaslini is a great Italian jazz musician with a giant discography, for your tastes I would advise you mainly the soundtracks (he is also the mind behind the music of "Profondo Rosso" by Goblin, to say)
ReplyDeleteAmong the discs I know:
- Fabbrica Occupata (with Jean Luc Ponty, more free jazz oriented)
- Colloquio con Malcom X (a jazz "opera" with long recited inserts in Italian language)
- Murales (in quartet with Andrea Centazzo, I recommend this to you :-)
others people will help you better than me
cheers :-)
