A quartet from Turin formed by Marco Cimino (Errata
Corrige and later
Arti & Mestieri) and Marco
Gallesi (Arti & Mestieri), but much more
jazz-oriented than these members' former bands.
Their only album, Esagono, was released in 1976
on the small Mu label, and is a very well played instrumental jazz-rock album
with some similarities with
Arti & Mestieri (some
of whose members like Arturo Vitale, Giovanni Vigliar and Gigi Venegoni also
guested on the LP) in tracks like Dedalo e Icaro, but far from that
group's progressive moments, and not different from the style of other italian
bands like
Perigeo.
The album went totally unnoticed, even due to the bad distribution, and the
band soon split, drummer Diaferia later played with
Combo
Jazz.
