Giorgio Gaslini, one of the leading pianists in the Italian new jazz scene, has released a number of masterpieces, including “Murales” (1976), “Free Actions” (1977) and “Indian Suite” (1983). Richiami", This album released in 1984, featuring female vocalists Francesca Oliveri, and the octet by Italian jazz musicians. The free-form progressions of A1 and A2, with their various twists and turns, are incredible, but the real highlight is the 18 minutes session on side B, entitled "Answers Other Than Questions". Francesca Oliveri's vocals, which are completely instrumental in the intro and closing theme, are superb, and the speedy, crisp interplay draws you in for a breathtaking ride.
