Me, never satisfied:
FrippFrippFripp... how about italian folclore loops?

Long time ago we used to call italian electric music "amore rock". Lots of
dramatic tenors, with a long and strong tradition from the opera...
Then I listened to Banco and Premiata Fornaria Marconi and another keyboard
trio and then some jazzrock with the Rusticis...
Later I fell in love with Zuccero...
... ah, and Pino Daniele is a client of PARADIS, but not for looping, I
think, only the AVALONs, whereof there are more in Italy than in the rest
of the world...
.... but I do not really know what goes on in Italy.
There must be a lot of instrumental virtuoso?
