Baustelle Neuhafen - U-båtbunkeren Dora Bygges (1942) (19199406238)
Baustelle is an indie rock band from Montepulciano, Italy. Biography Formed in the mid-'90s in the Tuscan town of Montepulciano, Italy, Baustelle (a German word that means "construction site" - or "building site" in English) didn't receive much mainstream attention for their first two albums, 2000's ''Sussidiario illustrato della giovinezza'' and 2003's ''La moda del lento''. It was their third one, however, that finally brought them acclaim. Composed of leader Francesco Bianconi on vocals, guitar, and synths, Rachele Bastreghi on vocals and keys, Claudio Brasini on guitar, and Claudio Chiari on drums, the band released ''La malavita'' on Warner Bros. Italy in 2005. Mixing the romantic sounds of British artists like the Smiths and Depeche Mode, with Italian composers like Ennio Morricone and Angelo Badalamenti and American acts like Television and Scott Walker, as well as with modern sounds of electronica and indie rock, the record gained immediate attention in the group's ...

Alfredo Rampi
Alfredo Rampi (11 April 1975 – 13 June 1981), nicknamed Alfredino (Little Alfredo), was an Italian child who died after falling into a well in Vermicino, a village near Frascati, on 10 June 1981. Incident Around 19:00 on 10 June 1981, 6-year-old Alfredo was out on a walk with his family. When the family decided to return home, he asked his parents if he could walk alone. As the child wandered by himself, he fell into an artesian well. The well was about wide and deep. His position, on arrival of the first rescuers, was estimated at around below ground level. The first rescuers were the local firefighters, who initially tried to lower a simple tablet attached to a rope. The hope was that Alfredo could grab the tablet and hold on to it as the men would pull him out. However, the tablet got stuck before it could reach the boy. The firefighters could not pull the tablet back out because the rope tore. The tablet blocked the exit. Next, three speleologists tried to lower th ...

Scott Walker (singer)
Noel Scott Engel (January 9, 1943 – March 22, 2019), better known by his stage name Scott Walker, was an American-British singer-songwriter and record producer who resided in England. Walker was known for his emotive voice and his unorthodox stylistic path which took him from being a teen pop icon in the 1960s to an avant-garde musician from the late 1970s to his death. Walker's success was largely in the United Kingdom, where he achieved fame as a member of pop trio the Walker Brothers, who scored several hit singles, including two number ones, during the mid-1960s, while his first four solo albums reached the top ten during the later part of the decade, with the second, '' Scott 2'', reaching number one in 1968. He lived in the UK from 1965 onward and became a UK citizen in 1970. After the Walker Brothers split in 1967, he began a solo career with the album '' Scott'' later that year, moving toward an increasingly challenging style on late 1960s baroque pop albums such as '' ...
