It's now a wedding dress shop, but way back in 1994, music roared through the legendary Bar Dolomiti in Conegliano. Francesco Michielin, Carlo Piccoli, and Stefano Fedato didn't yet know that for the next six (six!) decades, they would grace the Italian music scene under the timeless name of Metronomes. Anyone who, that evening thirty years ago, had the privilege of witnessing the birth of their trio can boast of having witnessed an event of inestimable rarity and importance, perhaps equal only to the discovery of America or the passage of the Hale-Bopp comet. And indeed, I boast, I boast indeed. And while I boast, I insert their new album, "Trent'anni fuori tempo," into my old CD player.
Thirteen years after the release of the wonderful "Adamo, Let's Swing!", the Metronomes return with this beautiful anthology of their recordings, spanning from 1997 to the most recent era. With the addition of four new songs, the album gains new life and shows us how these eternal boys have more or less remained the same as those who, thirty years ago, reunited at the Bar Dolomiti. Everything has been said and written about them. The story of their spectacular live performances walks a tightrope between reality and true legend.
It's said, for example, that the singer, a sumptuous vocalist with a tarry throat and a crazy attitude—I saw him a few weeks ago dressing up in a big wig and glasses, mimicking Elvis—is actually a meticulous neat freak. They say he keeps all his song lyrics, handwritten by himself, in ten enormous volumes that he carries with him to gigs. He's also been seen assembling a highly complicated gadget called a "spritz holder," which he can't do without at a concert.
They also say that the drummer, once playing "As Time Goes By," set the swing tempo so high that it made the drumsticks smoke (luckily, the host had a fire extinguisher and extensive fire safety training under his belt). For him, these years don't seem to have passed; he still looks thirty, has full hair and not a single gray strand (the other two envious metronomes say he dyes it), but above all, while he plays at these frenetic rhythms, he smiles and has fun like a child.
Even the pianist, who uses his left hand like a double bass, is a strange character. Some say he plays exclusively by ear (one ear moving ten fingers? What kind of prodigy is that?). He doesn't rehearse or study pieces, but if you ask him for a song, he can reproduce it with the precision of a jukebox. And as he plays, he taps his feet and sways constantly off-beat: it remains a mystery how the song stays in time while he follows some other internal rhythm.
Since April 20, 1994, many liters of red wine have passed through singer Francesco's tarry throat, and black and white keys under Carlo's fingers, and calluses and drumsticks in Stefano's hands. And yet, the legend of the Metronomes continues to amaze us, make us laugh, and tap our foot under the table. Franco Ceci Colpis
