about

One of the very few missing links in the history of Italian prog CD reissues, this is the second effort by the brothers Salis, Antonio and Francesco from Santa Giusta, Oristano in Sardinia. Released in 1974; one of the first quadraphonic records from Italy. A very nice album, this has much in common with another group from Sardinia, Gruppo 2001.

Featuring Antonio Salis on bass, his brother Francesco on guitar (he sadly passed in 2007 and was well known as one of the best guitar players in Italy), Gianni Serra on guitars, Dario Baldan Bembo on keyboards and drummers Andy Surdy and Furio Bozzetti, this is a gentle and underrated gem, with beautiful acoustic interludes, nice vocal harmonies and some catchy tunes.

Tra gli ormai pochissimi album di progressive italiano mai ristampati prima, “Seduto sull’alba a guardare” è il secondo lavoro dei fratelli Antonio e Francesco Salis, provenienti da Santa Giusta (OR) in Sardegna. Pubblicato nel 1974, è uno dei primi LP quadrifonici italiani. Un ottimo disco, stilisticamente simile alla produzione di un’altra band sarda, i Gruppo 2001.

Oltre ad Antonio e Francesco Salis (quest’ultimo scomparso tristemente nel 2007, ritenuto tra i migliori chitarristi in Italia) – rispettivamente basso e chitarra – il disco ospita Gianni Serra (chitarra), Dario Baldan Bembo (tastiere), Andy Surdy e Furio Bozzetti (batteria). Si tratta di una sottovalutata perla rara, con bellissimi interludi acustici, armonie vocali e canzoni accattivanti.
