Gli Avvoltoi
Quando Vuoi Scappare (1991-1995)
What may be called the second life of Avvoltoi takes shape at the end of 1991. Moreno Spirogi together with Sandro Piu, after the Ugly Things, decided to dust off the old initial, Gli Avvoltoi exactly. The line up is completed by Stefano "Pugnaro" Cervellati, also just back from the Ugly Things, bass player and Max Cippo, already active in many of the ugly birds lives in the '80s, at the keyboards. The sound changes in the references and intentions than the 80s, the approach is rocker, harder, with some excursions approaching some kind of popsike. In this collection we find the three official recordings of that period, two singles published by Destination X and the 12" released for Vu Ballè Vu plus many unreleased songs kept for many years in a drawer and some live traks. Analysing the songs of this collection we find three important Italianised cover, I'm A Man, Get Yourself Together and Hush, cleverly combined to tracks signed by the band characterized by a very personal propensity. This Gli Avvoltois phase hadn't yet been assembled in a unique collection the less it has gone out on CD. Surely the most interesting part is the one of many unrelaesed songs, with original recordings most of them recorded on 4-track tape. Finally, this album contains all the material recorded by the band in the years from 1992 to 1995 and it can be considered a "definitive" collection that resumes that awesome period and photographs it in its true shades and in its essence.
