Patto (Hard Progressive Jazz Rock {UK})

Patto (photo 01)

Patto foi uma banda de rock inglesa, formada em Londres em 1970. Fundada pelo vocalista Mike Patto, sua formação foi retirada da Timebox, composta pelo vocalista Patto, o guitarrista e vibrafonista Ollie Halsall, o baixista Clive Griffiths e o baterista John Halsey.

HISTÓRIA
COMEÇOS

A Timebox desenvolveu-se a partir de um pedigree complicado que incluía membros da The Bo Street Runners, Patto's People e Chicago Blue Line. Esta combinação de soul psych pop fez dois singles para a gravadora Piccadilly, antes de assinar com Deram, uma gravadora subsidiária da Decca Records, em 1967. A banda também gravou cinco singles para a Deram entre 1967 e 1969 e apareceu em programas de rádio da BBC como Noise at Nine, Stuart Henry on Sunday e Jimmy Young. O tecladista Chris Holmes saiu após o lançamento de seu último single e a banda começou a experimentar o rock progressivo.

ROCK PROGRESSIVO

Em 1970, Patto foi formada por membros da Timebox e assinou contrato com o recém-formado selo Vertigo. Com Muff Winwood como produtor, a banda gravou seu primeiro álbum ao vivo em estúdio.

Em dezembro de 1971, Patto entrou em estúdio novamente para gravar seu segundo álbum, "Hold your fire", após o qual foi retirado da lista da Vertigo. Apesar das baixas vendas de discos, a banda estava se tornando conhecida por suas performances emocionantes ao vivo. Por meio de suas conexões na Inglaterra, Muff Winwood conseguiu que a banda assinasse com a Island, e gravou o álbum "Roll 'em smoke 'em put another line out" em 1972.

Em 1973, a banda começou a gravar o quarto álbum. Mike Patto escreveu canções que eram menos cínicas do que o material usual da Patto e muito mais comerciais. O álbum seguinte, "Monkey's bum", não foi lançado: o álbum teve edições não-oficiais lançadas pelos selos Audio Archives (1995, em duas versões conhecidas como "black" and "green"), Akarma Records em 2002 e Dogtoire em 2010, e versões oficiais pela Esoteric Recordings em 2017, e Belle Antique em 2017 e outra em 2022 (para ver todas as edições clique aqui). Sem Halsall e com cada membro agora envolvido em outros projetos, Mike Patto optou por separar a Patto, passando a formar a Boxer com Halsall.

Infelizmente, Mike Patto e Ollie Halsall se foram: Mike Patto morreu em 1979 e Ollie Halsall morreu em 1992. Em 2009, a música "The man", da Patto, foi usada nos trailers do filme "Observe and report" (em Português: "O segurança fora de controle"), estrelado por Seth Rogen e Anna Faris, e foi incluída junto com outra faixa, "Sittin' back easy", na trilha sonora do filme.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Patto was an English rock band, formed in London in 1970. Founded by vocalist Mike Patto, its lineup was taken from Timebox, consisting of the vocalist Patto, the guitarist and vibraphone player Ollie Halsall, the bassist Clive Griffiths and the drummer John Halsey.

HISTORY
BEGGININGS

Timebox developed from a complicated pedigree that included members of The Bo Street Runners, Patto's People and Chicago Blue Line. This soul psych pop combo made two singles for Piccadilly label before signing to Deram, a subsidiary record label of Decca Records, in 1967. The band also recorded five singles for Deram between 1967 and 1969 and appeared on BBC radio shows such as Noise at Nine, Stuart Henry on Sunday and Jimmy Young. The keyboard player Chris Holmes left after its last single release and the band began experimenting with progressive rock.

PROGRESSIVE ROCK

In 1970, Patto was formed by members of Timebox and signed to the newly formed Vertigo label. With Muff Winwood as producer, the band recorded its first album live in the studio.

In December 1971, Patto entered the studio again to record its second album, "Hold your fire", after which it was dropped from the Vertigo roster. Despite poor record sales, the band was becoming known for its exciting live performances. Through his connections in England, Muff Winwood was able to have the band signed to Island, and it recorded the album "Roll 'em smoke 'em put another line out" in 1972.

In 1973, the band began to record the fourth album. Mike Patto wrote songs that were less cynical than the usual Patto material and much more commercial. The ensuing album, "Monkey's bum", was not released: the album had unofficial editions released by the labels Audio Archives (1995, in two versions known as "black" and "green"), Akarma Records in 2002 and Dogtoire in 2010, and official versions by Esoteric Recordings in 2017, and Belle Antique in 2017 and another in 2022 (to see all editions click here). Without Halsall and with each member now involved in other projects, Mike Patto chose to disband Patto, going on to form Boxer with Halsall.

Sadly, both Mike Patto and Ollie Halsall are gone: Mike Patto died in 1979 and Ollie Halsall died in 1992. In 2009, Patto's song "The man" was used in trailers for the film "Observe and report" starring Seth Rogen and Anna Faris and was included along with another track, "Sittin' back easy", on the film's soundtrack.
