Charly Antolini in Atomic Drums, Knock Out, Antolini Live, Countdown, Special Delivery (1972 to 1980), and the Catch Up Albums (1975, 1976)

From discogs:

Jazz drummer, born 24 May 1937 in Zürich, Switzerland, now living in Munich, Germany. Appears on records since the 1950s with artists like Bill Coleman (2), Wolfgang Dauner, Eugen Cicero, Stuff Smith, Baden Powell and Lionel Hampton or Benny Goodman in the 1980s. He also played in the dixieland group "The Tremble Kids" and the German big band of "Süddeutscher Rundfunk". Has been a band leader and session musician. At present he tours regularly with his band "Jazz Power".

Perhaps everyone knows the two Catch Up albums which were made in the mid-seventies with the great bassist/composer/library guy Milan Pilar and pianist Max Greger Junior, they were really wonderfully accessible fusion explorations with some nice ideas and that sweet sweet variation in moods typical of Euro-fusion, at times delicate and thoughtful, at times super-high energy.  The remainder of Antolini's discography was somewhat disappointing, being quite percussion-dominant, which is not conducive to resolving my frequent migraines problem, though the 1980 LP Special Delivery in which he assembled a big band to play some funky more jazz-based fusion was the best that I heard.  

I bought and ripped the LP so you can get off on the beautiful sound of the instruments, bar the (boring, sorry to the percussionists out there) drum solos that necessarily permeate the opus.  Thank god we are gifted today, in the age of social media, with the ability to fast forward without more than moving one finger, as opposed to moving our entire bodies as we were forced to do back when this record was first made, walk over to the record player, lift up the needle, and advance to an unknown place somewhere into the future of musical time.  Thank god we have social media too!!  And thank god for twitter! Boy is it ever helpful for politics!  Just miraculous.  I mean, the things that social media has done for democratic institutions, it's just priceless.  Should be canonized by the pope just like that teenager who made the website for miracles.  And I recommend you ready that story--a heart-warming story indeed.  It is.  Anybody have a clean doggie bag?

Notice the compositions are handled by such luminaries as bassist Wolfgang Schmid (I should do a post just on his stuff, starting with his Wolfhound and moving on he produced some really amazing fusion in his own right which I collected long ago), and keyboardist/arranger Dieter Reith, also a well-known, highly visible Goth Fusioneer.  His stuff also probably well known to all fusion fans.

Again you'll note I added the compositional credits which to me, but no one else I think, are highly valuable.  Wolfgang Schmid's The Pump contribution melds together disco and fusion in an altogether successful (?) manner:

PS
I subsequently found a wonderful Milan Pilar library from 1980 I hadn't known before full of interesting progressive ideas, funky sounds, amazing atmospheres painted in music, etc., it's this one, and I included it down below:

And what a wonderful cover photo too!!
