                       Description
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

«Napoli Centrale were formed by the nucleus of Showmen after the band's 
split, when James Senese and Franco Del Prete, along with American 
keyboardist Mark Harris and English bass player Tony Walmsley veered 
toward a personal blend of jazz-rock and popular music leaving any traces
of prog behind them.»

«With lyrics sung in Neapolitan dialect, the first single Campagna became
a hit.  The six-track debut album was in a similar style, the strong 
lyrics dealing with social problems while the music  was sometimes very
original. After the LP release, bassist Tony Walmsley left the band to 
join the reformed Rovescio della Medaglia, and was soon followed by Mark
Harris, they were replaced by keyboardist Pippo Guarnera and various bass 
players, Bruno Limone, Giovanni Ferla and the last one the Trinidad born
Kelvin Bullen. This line-up had a good live activity,with a couple of 
important concerts,in Rome opening for Weather Report and the Duke-Cobham 
Band, and later at the legendary Montreux Jazz Festival in witzerland, 
then they broke up at the end of 1975.»

«A second album was released in 1976, with help from many well-known 
session musicians among which drummers Bruno Biriaco (Perigeo), Agostino
Marangolo (Flea and Goblin), and Marvin "Boogaloo" Smith, and was in the
same style as the first LP.  Third album came in 1977, with the founding 
duo helped by other musicians, and was more jazz-oriented than their 
previous works. Among the band musicians in these years were keyboardist
Ciro Ciscognetti from Fabio Celi & gli Infermieri and a young Pino 
Daniele on bass, later a popular solo artist. Even the previous 
keyboardist, Pippo Guarnera, who in 1976 had joined Eugenio Finardi's 
band, played on Qualcosa ca nun more.»
