All works are scheduled to be released on CD in beautiful paper jackets. [The third release is Pepe Maina's official Japanese release!] The third release in the series features Pepe Maina, Italy's proud \"singing troubadour\". Born in Milan in 1950, Pepe Maina received musical education from a young age, partly because his father was a professional violinist. However, he drastically changed direction when he picked up an electric guitar at the age of 13. Pepe's music is characterized by \"playing all instruments himself\" and \"showing influences from the East.\" He himself says that he became interested in the essence of Eastern music and instruments after listening to the British band Jade Warrior, but he plays a type of music that is clearly different from that of the Mediterranean, the Middle East, and Arab countries, making him a rare sensibility for an Italian. In Japan, he was an unknown, mysterious multi-artist, and only his debut work, \"Il Canto Dell'arpa E Del Flauto\" (1976), was released. However, he has since independently released 37 works and can be considered a hidden master of the New Age scene. The lineup of releases, all of which can be called unearthed recordings, includes the first official CD release of Pepe Maina's legendary second album, \"Sheritza,\" as well as the completely unreleased album \"The Belgirate Tapes,\" recorded around the same time and left dormant. All works will be released in Japan for the first time. The legendary second album of Pepe Maina, Italy's proud \"non-singing troubadour,\" is finally getting its first official CD release! It unfolds a grand and magical sonic tapestry set in Scheritza, northern Italy, where Pepe lived at the time. As a bonus track, it includes \"Sheritza Sunset,\" which was recorded at the time but never released. 1979 [TRACKLIST] 1. Chorus of Nava 2. Scheritza (Part 1) 3. Cocoon Star (Parts 1 \u0026amp; 2) 4.
