When I was fifteen, sixteen, when I really started to play the guitar I definately wanted to become a musician It was almost impossible because the dream was so big I didn't see any chance Because I was living in a little town, I was studying And when I finally broke away from school And became a musician, I thought Well, I may have a bit of a chance Because all I every wanted to do is music But not only play music, but compose music
At that time, in Germany, in 1969-70 They already had discotheques So I would take my car and go to a discotheque And sing maybe 30 minutes I think I had about 7-8 songs I would partially sleep in the car Because I didn't want to drive home And that help me for about almost 2 years to survive In the beginning, I wanted to do a album With the sound of the 50s, the sound of the 60s, of the 70s And then have a sound of the future And I said: Wait a second I know the synthesizer, why don't I use the synthesizer Which is the sound of the future? And I didn't have any idea what to do But I knew I needed a click so we put a click on the 24 track Which was then synch to the Moog modular I knew that it could be a sound of the future But I didn't realise how much impact it would be
My name is Giovanni Giorgio, but everybody calls me Giorgio
