Album Homework Assignment: Chris Alo Faces Off Against Luis Nasser

[@ericporter344]

Really fun show, great job Luis and Chris. World's collide!

[@tanvirchoudhury122]

Nasser and Alo are my two favourites, they make me smile from ear to ear. My only complaint was that the episode was too short.

[@lahloonatic]

Thank you. Alo is pure comedy gold.

[@sspbrazil]

Great episode. Luis and Chris never disappoint.

[@joedolenza7944]

Louis describes things so perfectly! Great show!

[@whitey7998]

Really enjoyed Luis and Chris on this show thanks Pete. I can easily say if I like or dislike an album, but it’s a real art being able to communicate a deeper description of something that not only makes sense but is interesting for the viewer. Nice one all.

[@arnaudb.7669]

Cool show! This balletto di bronzo record is frightening!!!

[@MrFrikkenfrakken]

This is such a great concept. Well done to Luis and Chris for well spoken, well created discussion on their respective albums. Another one hit out of the ballpark.

[@mahogany174]

Totally agree. Even if I don’t particularly listen to the sort of music being discussed it’s great to hear these guys talking about them.

[@drewrose374]

Great Show! didn't know what assignment to expect... I want to check these out! if Chris buys it, will it be multiple copies? lol

[@childint1me]

Very nice to see people talking about Il Balletto di Bronzo! Ys is one of my favorite prog albums.

[@keith.tdublin3268]

Very very cool show guys! Great way to end my weekend! Looking forward to next week's face off, and everything else here between now and then 🤩

[@IcedEarthMinion]

25 minutes, and entertaining throughout. That’s how it’s done. Great one Chris and Luis!

[@mattymac1399]

Awesome stuff. Just found YS on Spotify. Sounds promising. I have had Stunt Rock for ages as an extra on my Man From Hong Kong blu. Definitely gonna check it out soon. Chris - Osanna are an awesome 70s Italian prog band. They scored Milano Calibro 9 which is a superb crime flick I would recommend to anyone on this channel! 🤟

[@mariopimenteljr8312]

Love it!! Great, tremendous episode!

[@sierramodre1]

Perfect pairing episode; love this series Pete! Thanks guys👏🏻

[@stevepoleri7604]

This was spectacular! Stunt Rock might as well be a Fellini or Orson Wells lost masterpiece. The trailer alone is awesome. Can’t wait to listen to both albums.

[@Danimal77]

Il Balletto di Bronzo has released at least 6 albums. One in 1969, one in 1970, one in 1972, one in 1997/1999, one in 2016, and a bootleg in 2020. The lead singer is 68 years old. I'd also recommend Antonio Bartoccetti/Antonius Rex/Invisible Force/Jacula. Big time spooky music that could have easily been done for horror movie soundtracks.

[@akira3287]

Great show.You should do Sunday shows with Cris and Luis.And it should be longer, for sure :)

[@jayjaytee9944]

I was so hoping for a Beatles or Fleetwood Mac Rumours' lol

[@chiragchittar4179]

Great show! Always love listening to luis and Chris since their explanations are so vivid and articulate. I really liked the picks too since they are more about the theatrical and cinematic aspect of music which is always fun.

[@vinylsolution2522]

Louis Chris and Pete, great power trio, more episodes with this lineup.

[@gwts1171]

Another great episode! I have been a fan of Sorcery for a long time, but hadn't heard the prog band. I'm going to go listen to them now. Thanks, Pete, Chris, and Luis!

[@purpletemple1]

Very interesting episode. Didn't know a single thing about "Sorcery", and didn't know anything about the man/vampire behind Il Balletto. Great show!

[@Ferion333]

Such a great and fun episode!. Luis, eres un chingón, necesitamos verte más seguido. Siempre con muy buenos (y divertidos) comentarios.

[@andreijurca5546]

Pete, do you like the two new singles by Yes?

[@Redrum1981]

This is my favorite episode so far in this series

[@donaldwrissler9059]

I Love " Stunt Rock" the movie, so this was great.

[@tanvirchoudhury122]

So looking forward to this one. Should be sweet.

[@arunsabherwal6256]

Give us some fireworks 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😉😂 . Knew Chris Alo would never never dissapoint...well done Chris....you just stopped short of calling it 💩and blowing it to smithereens. Louis Nasser may need antiseptic tonight.😂

[@joedolenza7944]

Chris is always awesome as well!

[@Drumdude74]

Great show boys!

[@747jono]

Luis those were the days when music stores said you need or you got to listen to this. Or you went in the store heard something and said what is that on the turntable? Happy memories

[@Mike-aka747]

Interesting picks. The first ill Balleto di Bronzo is worth checking out. Authentically heavy. They had their own sound for sure.

[@careytamburrino746]

My favorite one so far!!! Love these guys!

[@747jono]

Fantastic show as always 👏

[@christianman73]

Luis picked the *perfect prog album* for horror fans! :-) Giallo prog-- I love it! Chris might also like Il Balletto di Bronzo's first album, "Sirio 2222," which is in a *very different* style-- guitar-heavy, pounding, early '70s hard rock! I *love* that album, but some prog fans hate it for not being prog. In addition to the first two albums, Di Bronzo also recorded a later reunion album with the first album's line-up.

[@marklangham4337]

Nice Piranha shirt Pete!!! A fun show for sure.

[@sdrandazzo]

Will be a fun and insightful episode. Wondering if Luis will give Chris a long, epic-filled Italian Prog classic album from either PFM or Banco or an Italian band closer (imho) to Chris’ heart like Goblin. God forbid if Luis gives him a Magma album lol!

[@mvjonsson]

Yes, YS is a great Italian progrock classic. I think Chris would enjoy the Slovenian/Italian band Devil Doll as well. Very theatrical gothic prog.

[@lahloonatic]

I considered that one too, believe it or not - Dies Irae was the album, but thought YS was better. I didn't want to just give him something he would hate. It would be entertaining for us to rip on something, but for me at least, the best aspect of this channel is the discovery of good stuff. That can also include friendly warnings, but still...

[@mvjonsson]

@@lahloonatic I personally think the three first albums are much better. Dies Irae was a bit hit and miss for me. The Girl who was Death might be a good pick to start.

[@t702942]

This show is so good! 🙌🏻

[@dangerass1982]

Have you guys ever listened to the old Italian doom band Black Hole and Paul Chain's solo work? I thought of that while listening to the discussion.

Sorcery drunner Perry Morris had a Sorcery website, he sold a few things, including copies of the album. But he unfortunately passed away a few years ago.

How about second albums that are better than the debut? The debut needs to be a blockbuster.

[@godetonter4764]

But would Chris Alo buy 16 different versions of the album? Just one copy would mean he really hates the band

[@beetlebum7760]

No Rumours, Springsteen or The Who for Chris? Shame.

[@747jono]

Absolutely Luis it's prog rock. So many other channels use the word Prog and don't have a clue about the genre.
