14 BIS - Blue

Blue (Flávio Venturini) 14 BIS [Studio Album, released in 1979]

14 Bis biography (From Progarchives)

The band was formed in late 70s in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, when members of two bands, the symphonic O TERÇO and the folk Bendegó decided to merge. Flávio Venturini and Vermelho, two founding members of 14 Bis, were also members of the Clube da Esquina musical movement.The musical genre of 14 Bis is quite varied. The band always mentioned The Beatles and Brazilian singerMilton Nascimento as their major influences. Never the less, Brazilian Folk and Popular Music (MPB) is a strong element in many of 14 Bis compositions. The influence of progressive rock such as Emerson Lake & Palmer, Yes, Genesis and Italian acts, like PFM and Le Orme, are also quite evident in many of their compositions, such as in their use of analog keyboards and complex vocal arrangements.

Esse órgão é muito nervoso. Eu tive espasmos no metrô escutando essa música no fone de ouvido. Sério! Obrigado por postar.
