CLASH AT THE TOP









Hello Boyz 'n Girlz,
Here's an attempt for a new kind of musical post on Deluks, still aiming at reducing the gap between past and present sound.
It's about a song by a very famous italian artist, Lucio Battisti.
This song, "Il Veliero"(The Sailship, Le Voilier, quoi!) , was published on his album "La Batteria, Il Contrabbasso Eccetera" in 1976, and is quite a "groovy" tune compared to the rest of this artist repertoire.
What i'd like to propose here is an extended cover of this song by another old school formation, the Chaplin Band, from Netherlands, who released it in 1982
on a dutch label, Pierrot Records. Their version is quite similar to the original, which i highly recommend, but it's extended, and will thus probably remind you on the hypnotic and contemporary productions of the likes of Prinz Thomas, Hans Peter Lindstrom, Rune Lindbaek etc...
I hope yall enjoy it, and that you won't hesitate to comment on this!

No password needed, but the link won't be active for a long time...so, hurry up!
