Chetro & Co were a very peculiar group, in the Italian musical scene of mid sixties. Founded by Ettore De Carolis (Chetro), in the following years co-founder of the Nuovo Canzoniere del Lazio, a philological folk group, the other members of Chetro & Co. were Franco Coletta (guitar) and Gianni Ripani (electric bass); they remained in the beat history for their first (and last) single (1967) published with the label Parade. On the A-side a long suite written by De Carolis and called "Danze della sera" (evening's dances), based on lyrics of the great Italian contemporary poet Pier Paolo Pasolini, on B-side "Le pietre numerate" (milestones), based on the classical and homonym tune of Miles Davis. One of the most remarkable examples in the italian psychedelia, completed by a "monster" cover, on six pages with a collage of strong and surprising images.
