Like Cincinnato even
Duello Madre, from Genova, only released a jazz-oriented album with just a
single vocal track (probably the most convincing one on the LP), issued in 1973
on Produttori Associati.
In the line-up Marco Zoccheddu from Nuova Idea and
Osage Tribe, Bob Callero also from Osage Tribe and drummer Dede Loprevite from
Circus 2000, along with sax and flute player Pippo Trentin, and the great
musicianship of the four-piece is evident throughout the album.
Aquile blu, with uncredited vocals (probably by guitarist Zoccheddu) and
nice sax solos is the best track, and Momento has a nice hypnotic bass
pattern, but the long instrumental tracks can be a bit monotonous at times.
After the band split the bass player Callero went to Il Volo, and drummer Loprevite played in Nova. Both Trentin and Loprevite passed away in 2014.
