In this period, this game is running on social networks. Everyone must precisely point out the ten albums that have greatly influenced their musical tastes, one a day and by having them tag a friend who in turn will do the same. It is a way to exchange their knowledge, tastes and musical preferences.
As soon as I was tagged by my friend CE, I thought: now it's up to amand, there are, I do it now and it takes.
I've tried, I guarantee you I've tried!
As a big music lover and a great listener (still buying and listening to music regularly) and fascinated by the beauty found in different artists and musical genres, to a very fast first sorting and with a quick memory flight, after a few minutes, I have already found myself that the discs selected were many, many, many more than 10.
But it was necessary to engage e select, if you wanted to keep up with the nomination, do not eliminate, but select, leaving some works in a corner of the heart that can be immediately resumed if necessary, perhaps apologizing for the temporary provision.
Let's start in order, I said to myself, let's point out the discs / authors starting from the ones I started buying first (I was about 11 years old) let's bring them back to mind. We try to select, we indicate those that surely influenced me:
1) Made in Japan by Deep Purple (but also many others of the group)
2) Santana 1974 (but also many others by the artist)
3) Parsifal of the Poohs (1973)
4) Black Market of the Weather Report, and all the others in the group
5Jaco Pastorius
6) Pino Daniele - Pino Danile 1974 and all the others
7) Jeff Lorber Fusion
8Gino Vannelli
9) GRP Band and the single discs of the various musicians
10) Michel Petrucciani (Steve Gadd / Anthony Jackson)
But here I am now at 10th disco/author in a flash, too, too soon to at least partially satisfy my important musical memories.
This hyperselection would leave out albums / authors that are fundamental for me like:
Joni Mitchell Shadows ed light, Mingus, Pat Metheny, Genesis, Pink Floyd, James Taylor, Sting, Dave Weckl, John Patitucci, Brian Bromberg, Stanley Clark, Cruseders, Steps Ahead, Yellowjackets, Spirogyra, Miles Davis, George Benson, Dalla, De Crescenzo, De Andrè, Gino Paoli, PFM, BMS, Napoli Centrale, Perigeo, Osanna, UnisonoFx / UFX (self-quotation, but with their realization I discovered brand new musical influences and contemporary contaminations) and many others ... ..
No !, it is not possible to select, I just cannot, each record has its story, its why, its experience and cannot be placed in any corner of my heart.
Maybe it is that my heart for music and probably not only for this, is more a sphere without angles than a well-defined geometric figure.
