Trumpeter Francesco Cicci Santucci and saxophonist Enzo Scoppa got their start in the late '50s with the Italian group Italian group Modern Jazz Gang, along with other Italian jazz greats such as Sandro Brugnolini and Amadeo Tommasi. In June 1971, il maestro Piero Umiliani offered them his Sound Workshop recording studio located in the heart of Rome, to create an album to create an album under his supervision. The result was Olimpiade, a jazz-funk album driven by the electric piano of Franco d'Andrea (who would go on to play with the group Perigeo a year later), and the organ of Belgian musician Joel Vendrokenbrak. It should be noted that this session was also released on the Dire label, under the name On the the Underground Road, but here it is reissued for the first time with it's magnificent original cover.
