The Blues Right Off "Our Blues Bag" {Italy} [1970] (Heavy Blues-Rock)


Italy have always been famoused for all the progressive bands. But this is something totaly different a blues rock album! imagine Canned Heat and early Ten Years After but with a little bit more fuzz on some songs.
Some information:
THE BLUES RIGHT OFF Claes Cornelius (vocals, guitar)Giancarlo Salvador (bass)Fuffi Panciera (drums)Paolo Zanella (flute, guitar)+ Ermanno Velludo (sound engineer)A very little known group from Venice, but their only album, released in a very limited pressing, is among the rarest of the italian 70's rock. Not really a progressive rock album, this is surely a progressive work, starting from its odd jute sack cover. It was also one of the first (or possibly THE first) LP's by an italian blues band, as the blues was considered in Italy as a music only reserved to foreign musicians during the 60's.The band's leader, guitarist Claes Cornelius, was in fact a foreigner, from Denmark, that had moved to Italy in the mid-60's and soon played an important role in the beat era and afterwards.He had founded with sound engineer Ermanno Velludo the Suono Recording Studio.The album, Our blues bag, contains seven tracks, all sung in english and in the best blues tradition, based on electric lead guitar solos and high-pitched voice. All the tracks are original.Some Canned Heat similarities can be heard in the vocal parts or the use of a flute (like in Rushing wind), but generally the group has a personal sound.The band had been formed at the end of the 60's, and after its demise Cornelius kept as a session player, moving to the USA for a year, and then, back in Venice, contributing to Venetian Power's The arid land. He moved back to Denmark in 1974 and has stayed in the music biz since then, as a producer and musician.

  8. I don´t know what to say!!!
    when i see that you take the post from this blog http://granazi.blogspot.com/2008/02/blues-right-off-our-blues-bag-1970.html
    download it and degenerate/comprime the sound quality once again from 46 to 26 MB even more before you upload it here and pretend it's yours.

    If we lived back in wild west we would probably treat you like they treated horsethieves

    and I think you deserve it this time!

  9. Myself i don´t care much where it comes from but i say it´s common sense to give cred to the original rippers or uploaders.
    If you have destroyed this music even more by encoding it once again from 224k to 128k then you really really should be ashamed, that´s violating all possible rules and honor!

  10. I have been having the CD for some years now and it's one of my first rips I ever did (thats why its only a 128kb rip). And then I have taken the sleeve and the information from the Internet yes.
    And how can I check every blogg for what have been been posted? I try to search at google blogg search and the internet but its hard to find out if someone else allready have posted it.
    If it is a sorry you want, Im sorry^^
