Riccardo Rolli
Pop and Rock
A.k.a. Riccardo Pirolli Genco Puro & Co.
Despite the name Genco Puro & Co. was not a group, but a solo artist from Sicily, whose real name was Riccardo Pirolli. Under the name Riccardo Rolli he released three singles for Durium and Decca in the late 60's, then was in Cristalli Fragili with Gianni Mocchetti and Gianfranco D'adda and along with them played on Fetus, the first album by Franco Battiato, who, in return, helped him for the release of the Area di servizio LP. The album is mainly song based, built on keyboards and guitars, with Battiato singing in the best tracks Giorno d'estate and Nebbia, and seven of the 12 tracks on the LP composed by one Ed De Joy, who was, according to many sources, Franco Battiato himself. After a later single taken from the LP, Pirolli has stayed in the musical world as arranger and sound engineer. He is not to be confused with the similarly named drummer Roberto Genco that released a jazz-rock LP in 1977.
