Примечание: I had several trip to Sicily since my teen and every year, I managed somehow, to spend few weeks of holidays in the sunny island. I met Luca in 1996, while touring there with the "DA GOUS KET Ramblers? and we had several opportunities to spend time together, later on; by the years, I met Massimo and the rest of the rockin' guys from Catania... Nice, warm and friendly people. Massimo had his high light moment in the early 90's as a member of the "Silver Trio", a band that was inspired by Jive & Doo Woop music. Albums, TV's apparitions, and fame as a result for the 3 young "silver"men from Catania... But living in Paradise as also its shadow side: at that pre-internet time, my Sicilian friends felt quite isolated from the rest of the Rockin' scene in Europe. I was myself traveling with Lp's, carrying in my bags the new vinyl issues that they couldn't buy there at the time. In 1998, my fellows had build up a Rockabilly band and were booked to play live on an open stage close to "Aretusa Fountain" in the old Syracuse. A stunning and beautiful place where the fountain freshwater meet the salty sea. A drummer (Giovanni Zino) and a Guitar player (Roberto Gorgone) from Palermo were joining the Upright Bass(Luca Ciriacono) and the Singer and rhythm guitar(Massimo Rocca).Occident Sicily was meeting Oriental Sicily, the Punics had an appointment with the Greks, on the top of an eruptive black mountain named Etna to play music: DALE ROCKA and the VOLCANOES was born...
