UPDATE

***********************************************

DEAR FRIENDS, AFTER RECEIVING FIVE NOTIFICATIONS FROM DMCA, I HAVE DECIDED TO CLOSE MY BLOGS, SO ALL THIS SHARING-LINK ACTIVITY IS FINISHED. YOU CAN READ THE COMPLETE TEXT I POSTED ON MY PILOT BLOG - - > HERE

FOR THE MANY MANY PEOPLE WHO KEEP ASKING FOR RECORDS: I'M SORRY, I CAN'T FULFIL THEIR REQUESTS, IT ALL CAME TO A POINT THAT'S 'S TOO DANGEROUS FOR ME. I HAD TO REMOVE THE 97% OF THE ALBUMS I HAD POSTED ON THE SERVERS. The few exceptions are: the bootlegs and the few studio albums authorized directly by the copyright owners.


FOR ALL THE OTHERS, Cyrus (who wants to buy some of my vynil records), Maxoom, Caroalt, Jiro, Trolley Dolly, Phil (who wants my copies of the COB albums), Marnie (who wants my copy of the original "Ptooff"), XJ64, Antiamnbient, Arman, Nicolas, Rick, etc etc , please WRITE ME AGAIN WITH YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS, AND I WILL ANSWER YOU, OKAY?

LAST: I RE-UPPED THE FOREST'S LIVE ALBUM FOR THREE PEOPLE WHO ASKED FOR IT, SO IF ANYONE'S INTERESTED, HERE'S YOUR CHANCE.

KISSES - YOUR COUNTESS VANESSA

No pretention of completeness in mind, this blog sees the light with the idea of filling a good number of gaps here and there where I notice that certain music that I particularly like is missing in other blogs. Therefore I will abstain from posting albums that are present elsewhere, except only the cases where I am reported of dirty record scans, incomplete reissues, remixed versions, etc. Other exceptions are cases in which I can offer higher bitrate scans, or also when posting a title is necessary for the completeness of a thread or a discography.

VERSAILLES - Don Giovanni (1992)

VERSAILLES
the French group, not the Japanese one.

This album comes after a request, I couldn't believe that it doesn't exist on any other blog, it's not one of those 60's-70's rarities after all.  This is a gorgeous work, although - technically speaking - the band has the usual problems with the drummer, who doesn't lack fantasy and spirit of invention, but unfortunately remains often backwards with the tempo.  For those who want evidence, check especially the first two tracks on the album "Blaise and Benjamin", of 1998.  Also the guitarist is not very gifted in solos, his fingers often stumble, tangling himself up with plectrum and strings. However, despite a number of citations - mainly of Genesis - here you find extremely creative compositions, large spectrum of arrangements, a perfect LP for Progressive lovers!
Don't miss it.
Enough said.

    HAHAHAHA ... Thankyou for the "man" and the "dude" - LOL!
    I am actually a woman, my friend :-)))

    This demonstrates that you haven't read almost anything of what stays written on my page ;)

    1. I am a woman, my name is Vanessa

    2. I stopped publishing links directly on my pages - just 2 or 3 sporadic and very particular exceptions.

    3. if you don't give me your email address I can't send you anything

    So please, my friend, write me again and the Versailles album will be yours! :-))

    Your Countess V.
