Murple

Band, *1971 IT, Rome
Rock

Italian progressive rock band from the 70's, formed in 1971. They just recorded one album "Io Sono Murple". Line up: Pier Carlo Zanco - Voice, Keyboards and Synth Pino Santamaria - Guitars Mario Garbarino - Bass Guitar Duilio Sorrenti - Drums and Percussions In 2002 Akarma republishes “Io sono Murple” both on vinyl and cd, maintaining the precious original layout and booklet. The album gains reborn vitality and good success among fans in Italy and abroad. Thus the idea of reviving Murple, a dream that comes true in 2008. Duilio Sorrenti, Mario Garbarino and Pier Carlo Zanco reunite and after 34 years, Murple’s journey continues. This time we find Murple in an art gallery, at the exhibition of Victor Hartman’s paintings, the same painter who had inspired Mussorgsky’s “Pictures at an Exhibition”, composition that was adapted by Emerson Lake and Palmer to progressive rock music.
