Recorded live at the University Of Milan with Steve Lacy and Paul Litton during the 'Maledetti' period. Many cite this show as the point at which jazz critics started recognising Area as more than just a rock band. Proving the band's enormous live potential, this is one of the best concert recordings available from Italy's finest anarcho jazz/prog/rock outfits.
"Highlighting a huge variety of electronic keyboards, the album?s seven tracks (ranging in time for three to well over twenty minutes) create a variety of moods and declarations. Ethereal choruses waft and float through the pulsing synths while drums weave the unusual sounds together. Full of electronic and electro-acoustic ideas and a variety of disparate moods (from the dark and beautiful Armature double to the off-handed faux blues of Rock ? Montauban)... Fans of ?70s synthesizers, Krautrock and the French scene will find much here to love. Completely and carefully remastered from the master tapes for incredible sound, the 76-minute release is a MUST for lovers German and French avant-rock of this era."
