Abbiamo Tutti Un Blues Da Piangere by Perigeo

Abbiamo Tutti Un Blues Da Piangere by Perigeo, released in 1973, in my opinion one of the pinnacles of Italian music.

Perigeo boasts a magnificent lineup, featuring top-notch musicians, starting with leader and bassist Giovanni Tommaso.

With this album, the band takes a more decisive approach to jazz-rock, ranging from rock to fusion, from progressive to funk. They've often been compared to the style of  Weather Report, Soft Machine and Area , but Perigeo's music was, in my opinion, even superior.

A music worth listening to with headphones, in my opinion, for seven exceptional tracks. The series of albums that began with Azimut and continued with Abbiamo Tutti un Blues da Piangere, Genealogia, and La Valle dei Templi is simply magnificent, and after the break with Non e' poi così lontano, a lesser album in my opinion, it continues with other excellent albums, such as Fata Morgana, Alice, and Effetto Amore, all of the highest quality. Of all these, the first four are my favorites, and of these four,  Abbiamo Tutti un Blues da Piangere, but I'm sure fans will have their own preferences and will certainly agree with me on the importance of this band in the Italian and international music scene.

Perigeo are fantastic and deserve to be discovered by those who don't know them and rediscovered by those who already love them, to always grasp new nuances with every listen.
