🎼📸When you miss the concert in Venice #Mestre of one of your old time Italian rock heroes (28 years we don't meet 😱!)... but you arrive in time to say hallo to Omar Pedrini 🤟🙏🎸
#OmarPedrini #ZioRock #Timoria

🎼15 October 1971. 50 years ago one of the most stunning songs in #Italy rock history is released as b-side of the first single of Premiata Forneria Marconi (PFM), one of the best progressive rock bands ever. The single is called "La Carrozza di Hans", the b-side is Impressioni di Settembre, written by Franco Mussida-Mogol-Mauro Pagani 🙏🏻🔝🤟
"Impressioni di Settembre" would become an all time classic, covered by uncountable musicians, #PFM would become the most famous and worldwide respected Italian rock band of the 70s.
In the Chat Room👇 the single cover, and an amazing rendition by #Timoria #vocalist #FrancescoRenga 😱👏

🎼 "A hymn to you before we drink,
to #Amsterdam and #Hemingway,
to #Piedmont and Diego Armando!
Remember, this life is female,
and it must be fully lived".

📀 Album of the Year

📌12 October 1993

Timoria
📀 Viaggio Senza Vento
#Rock #HardRock #AlternativeRock

30 years ago Timoria from #Brescia, #Italy released their 4th studio album.

A concept album about the dramatic life journey of a local boy and his final resilience, Viaggio Senza Vento is undoubtedly one of the best albums in Italian Rock history🤘

I chose it as "album of the year" because it meant a lot to me and to many rockers in their 20s who lived in #Lombardy in those years.
I personally knew #Timoria guys and spent my summer 1994 following them on tour across the region.
Those were the days ❤️‍🔥

#FrancescoRenga – vocals, backing vocals

📌28 March 1995

Timoria
📀 2020 Speedball
#AlternativeRock #HardRock #AlternativeMetal

30 years ago Timoria from #Brescia, #Italy released their 5th studio album.

2020 Speedball has heavier riffs and sound compared to #Timoria previous works, it's the band's best selling and highest charting album.

Like their fantastic 👉 Viaggio Senza Vento, 2020 Speedball is a concept on the impact of technology on human behaviour and an encouragement to go back to the basics.

The album had a revival of interest in year 2020... take a look at the title and the front cover and think of what happened with coronavirus, vaccines etc 😱

In this album:
#FrancescoRenga – vocals
#OmarPedrini – guitar, vocals, backing vocals
#EnricoGhedi – keyboards, backing vocals
#Illorca – bass, backing vocals
#DiegoGaleri – drums, backing vocals
