Choron

Le Professeur Choron fait hara-kiri à la philosophie !
Outrancier, virulent, paillard et hilarant, le Professeur Choron ouvre sa gueule pour nous donner une bonne leçon de liberté. Tel un Diogène des temps modernes, le grand manitou d'Hara-Kiri philosophe avec une brillante lucidité sur le tabac, l'alcool, la guerre, la religion, la vie, la mort - bref, toute l'absurde connerie de cette blague féroce qu'est l'existence ! …

Very popular artist in Italy, both as a solo artist and as session musician, Mauro Pagani had a good solo career after leaving Premiata Forneria Marconi in 1976, tired of the long hard work on the road. In his early days as a musician, Pagani had played with Gli Araldi, JB Club, I Dalton. His love for the world music strongly emerged in his 1978 first album, simply entitled Mauro Pagani, featuring many of the best Italian musicians of that time, among which Area's members Demetrio Stratos, Patrizio Fariselli, Giulio Capiozzo and Ares Tavolazzi, PFM's old cohorts Franco Mussida, Patrick Djivas and Franz Di Cioccio, singer Teresa De Sio. The album is very far from his old band's works, with strong oriental folklore influences, but definitely a very good one.
