“Senza Orario Senza Bandiera” is the legendary New Trolls debut record! Released in 1969, it was one of the very first complete LP by a pop band and also a real “concept album”: lyrics where written for the band by singer/songwriter Fabrizio De André, with the cooperation of poet Riccardo Mannerini, while Giampiero Reverberi (later producer of Le Orme’s “Collage”, “Uomo di pezza”, “Felona e Sorona” and “Contrappunti”) arranged the music.

“Senza Orario Senza Bandiera” is an excellent album, very successful at the time, strongly tied to the beat sound of the early days. As usual, there are the remarkable full-band harmony vocals (a trademark that New Trolls had from the very beginning), plus the Hendrix-ish guitar of Nico di Palo and some interesting guitar parts but not particularly complex compositions.
