"The Flight of the Phoenix" is the title of the awaited debut album by Fabio Casanova, former keyboardist in MALOMBRA. Many musical ideas in "The Flight of the Phoenix" were previously thought for MALOMBRA, but after the split Fabio has worked hard on shaping them as a new full-length album for a new and different project. Expect SAD MINSTREL to bring you through enchanted realms, where prog and psych ambiences a la Jethro Tull mix with folk influences, specially from Ireland and Occitania. Some titles are already available: "The Butterfly", "The Flight of the Phoenix", "Silent Revolution", "Mad Minstrel", "The Night of Beltaine", "The Wood of Memories", "Canzone della bambina di Triora" (this one is sung in dialect )and "Silent Revolution" is his personal tribute to Italian chansonnier Fabrizio De Andre') TRACKLISTINGMad Minstrel 6:38Canzone della Bambina di Triora 8:26The Flight of the Phoenix 5:05Silent Revolution 5:06The Butterfly 5:45A Friend of Mine 5:39The Night of Beltaine 4:08The....3:26The Wood of Memories 9:18
