«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 Switzerland, 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.»
«After the band split James Senese started a solo career with the first two albums in 1983-84, while both him and Del Prete were very active as session musicians. Keyboardist Mark Harris, still living in Italy, has launched his own record label, Saint Rock, to promote new Italian artists (see link below). A r
evamped line-up of Napoli Centrale was created by
James Senese in the late 80's, with
Savio Riccardi (keyboards),
Gigi De Rienzo (bass) and
Agostino Marangolo (drums). This line-up released two albums, Jesceallah in 1992, including reworkings of early tracks, and
'Ngazzate nire in 1994. Another album followed in 2001, entitled
Zitte! Sta venenn' 'o mammone. In 2005 neapolitan rock writer Carmine Aymone published Je stò ccà.....James Senese, a book with a bonus CD with 6 tracks, produced by the independent label Suonidelsud (see link at the bottom of the page and the Books section for more details).»
