TINO IZZO Sometimes, there are days when sadness and melancholy come, and you wish to stop, sit down and go far beyond, to the past. You recollect the people, who were nearby, those who loved you. And for a short time you are there, in the past, where you can not ever return. But the memory revives light moments of your life, and these recollections are clearing you. They give you a new strength to live and do not surrender to the troubles, which are awaiting you. Everybody has these minutes... Music of Tino Izzo ideally corresponds to these states, and not occasionally his album is named " Nostalgia Trails" . This music contains light sadness, tenderness, and slow observation, the joy of loneliness and hope for the better - many emotions are interwoven with the Tino Izzo's music. Every his composition is a separate life story told by a man who has something to tell us. Depth and sincerity of feelings are in this music, it can be played only by a person who has experienced many situations himself, who passed all these emotions through himself. That is why, this music can not leave you indifferent. For me, Tino Izzo is surely a brilliant composer-melodist, outstanding musician, and one of the best guitarists of our time. His music is quite unique, and you can not confuse his style with any other one. Tino Izzo masterly plays most various types of guitars, and, also, mandolin, bass, keyboards and other instruments. When you hear his music you remark again and again that it is very emotional, and contains just a storm of feelings and emotions. There is a big power in this music, and you feel that a real man is talking to you. " Nostalgia Trails" is more than just a collection of the best works of Tino Izzo from his three most famous albums (" Blue Desires" , " Foreign Skies" , and " Four September Suns" ). One can find here three original compositions, one of which is an interesting interpretation of the Lennon/McCartney's " And I Love Her" . Inspiring music of Tino Izzo! This is a rare thing, that one can hear something close to this emotional incandescence and virtuous performing, for which there are no limits. Divine sounds of a guitar and magical harmonies. Unearthly dreams and real stories. Clearance of thought and absolute openness of feelings... If you are going to an uninhabited island, do not forget to take this album with you - " Nostalgia Trails" is an everlasting music.
