Orion's Beethoven

Orion's Beethoven - Superangel 1973 (Argentina, Heavy Prog) 

 


"Orion's Beethoven formed in Argentina in the late 60's, but it took them over four years to release their debut album. 'Superangel' eventually came out in 1973, and was a good progressive effort, influenced in parts by The Nice and ELP with the inclusion of classical excerpts in the music. Guest musicians provide sax and percussion, and the sound is complex enough to please most progressive rock fans. The second track is a twelve minute suite which incorporates acoustic and hard rock sections, as well as a fine sax solo from Chachi Ferreyra. The final track 'Hijo Del Relampago' has a harder rock edge that much of what has gone before, and this could be the starting point for the direction that the band took for their second album."

01. Superangel (Ronán Bar, Adrián Bar) - 17:37 included:
a). El Camino De Los Superhombres
b). Soy El Sol
c). Nirmanakaya

ARTICOLO DAL WEB
Gli Osanna il 7 novembre eseguiranno
una performance unica nel suo genere,
insieme alla “String Orchestra” proponendo
la colonna sonora del film “Milano calibro 9”,

chitarra e voce,saranno sul palco Sasà Priore
alle tastiere,Nello D’Anna al basso,Pasquale Capobianco
alla chitarra e Irvin Vairetti alle programmazioni e tastiere.
L’unione della creatività napoletana ,la forza del sapersi
rinnovare mescolando l’esperienza con le idee giovani e
suoni attuali rendono gli OSANNA una delle migliori realtà
musicali rock ,che esce fuori dai canoni del virtuosismo per
essere un ensemble di fresca energia. La lunga storia degli Osanna,
che segnarono agli inizi degli anni settanta la teatralità
dei volti truccati alla stregua dell’antiche rappresentazioni
greche,con alle spalle album storici e “cult” come “Palepoli”
e “L’uomo” che sono le antologie del progressive italiano .La
cultura italiana si espande con la musica e conquista il pubblico
giapponese con le migliori espressioni artistiche rock ,diventando
il marchio di fabbrica della creatività musicale che diventa
arte di tutti. “ Ritorniamo in Giappone dopo il Prog Family
tour 2010 a Tokyo,Kawasaky e Seul – dice Lino Vairetti leader
storico degli Osanna –ma questa volta con una veste nuova con
un progetto che ci unisce ad un’orchestra d’archi proponendo
la colonna sonora di Milano Calibro 9.

illustration of the album cover shows a naked woman lying on a gallows with a sunrise in the background, and next we banda playing surrounded by mountains and UFOs. The album begins with "Destination Nowhere", a killer track are noticeable influences from Deep Purple in both guitars as the Hammonds. "Vegence" is somewhat more accelerated pace of vocal reminds the Queen on their first records. The album continues with "Bitch" that surely is another highlight, the bases of the Hammonds are intense, and the instrumental "Lessons For Beginners." "I Can Feel" is another instrumental track, here only runs the guitar Jan "Fidde" Rognas. Closing the album "Brink Of Nowhere", the longest track on the disc, with its 7:30 minutes, this track has sound more progressive, harmmond provides support while the guitars do a fine job with his long solos.

Releases information
 
LP Philips 6305 095 (1971) Link download:http://narod.ru/disk/7799137001/Silberbart1971.rar.html

The only album of the legendary power-trio. Legendary - not in the sense of "great", but in terms of - experimental noise-rock ... The explosions of fireworks at concerts. Adhering to the title of the album, it contains four tracks - different in content, but the same in essence. This is - paranoia on Cream (in "frikovoy" package) on Black Sabbath, led by guitarist Jimi Hendrix (if you can imagine) ... Early Alice Cooper ... The first Guru Guru ... Amateur Led Zeppelin ... Words - English, music - unreal. Early krautrok one word. Breakage broken, reinventing the wheel ...
