Review:<\/strong><\/p>\n

To mark Profondo Rosso<\/strong>\u2019s 40th<\/sup> anniversary, Claudio Simonetti and his newly formed band recorded faithful version of Goblin\u2019s main themes, engineered with the same precision as prior re-recordings. Each of the four main tracks is fairly long, feature robust sound, and almost match the analogue warmth of the original 1975 album.<\/p>\n

The 2015 recordings feature liquid bassist Frederico Amorosi, aggressive drummer Titta Tani, and guitarist Bruno Previtali each expressing their reverence for and joy in performing the music without hesitation. Simonetti deftly handles keyboards, synths, and Moog emulations, making for a solid 20 minute suite, with \u201cDeep Shadows\u201d offering the band\u2019s most vibrant performances and solos that perhaps reveal what the album should\u2019ve been: more free-form, improvised versions akin to masterwork Roller<\/strong>. <\/i>To augment the album\u2019s second half are 2 prior studio and 3 live theme versions, with “Mad Puppet” veering into blues \u2013 a sure sign Goblin\u2019s music is ripe for interpretation beyond formal prog-rock.<\/p>\n
