Viterbini, Adriano -& Reed Turchi-
Scrapyard
An international collaboration recorded in Memphis and Rome, 'Scrapyard' is a conversation between Viterbini and Turchi, an exploration of styles and sounds, sparked from an impromptu joint performance in November of 2013. This is the blues you do not expect. Fresh and young, these two talents together create a work that is both traditional and contemporary at the same time. Adriano Viterbini (Bud Spencer Blues Explosion) and Reed Turchi (idol of the alternative country/blues scene) met for the first time in Rome, soon finding themselves on a stage for an improvised performance. 'Scrapyard' collects eight songs with a sound that is deliberately blues, in the hill-country and delta forms, complemented by American-primitive elements as well as a strong cinematic vision. All conceived, designed and performed with rare taste and balance.
