Created by the former Nuova Idea members
Belloni and Siani after their group split, Track was a sort of
"divertissement" for the talented and experienced musicians
involved.
The group also featured singer Dario
Guidotti (from Jumbo, whose nickname on the cover was Cacao) and session bass player Guido
Guglielminetti and had help from the Giganti
keyboardist Checco Marsella.
Their album, called Track rock was released in 1974 on Ariston and
included nine tracks, all sung in english, among which covers of the Doobie Brothers' Long train
running and Status Quo's Caroline.
Almost all the album offers a
boogie-influenced rock'n'roll style, the most progressive track is an
instrumental called...Track.
Belloni released his only solo single after this album in 1974. He joined New
Trolls soon after, for their Concerto grosso n.2 album, later
playing with Nico Di Palo in his group Il Mito Dei New Trolls.
Guidotti has kept playing with his rock band Cacao until the end of the 80's,
they released a self-titled album on Pilgrim Fathers (PFH-27701) in 1981.
