Sad news has reached Morgan, currently engaged in rehearsals for the debut a dancing with the Stars: Max Five, his great friend and photographer who collaborated several times with him and the Bluvertigos is dead.
It was the singer himself who gave the news with a long post on Instagram in which he wanted to remember his friend and some of the anecdotes that marked their relationship, made up of chats, work and moments of relaxation: “For me he could be remembered as’ the photographer who hated straight cash,” he said.
Morgan’s farewell to Max Quinque
“In my entire life Max is the most ‘talking’ person I’ve ever met – he remembers Morgan – He was very nice, he talked, but much, much more than me, and I don’t know if you know what I mean. He knew everything, he was truly cultured. And he had a lot to say and he said it, we liked him very much and we worked very willingly. He played with the same speed with which he spoke ”. There was no lack of moments of confrontation between them: “In the overwhelming flow of words it was obvious that there were invectives and criticisms, also because he was very intelligent and when the criticisms come from a mind that thinks fast and creative they are always small masterpieces, aphorisms or sensational paradoxes “.
In the post, which also continues in the comments, between anecdotes and memories, Morgan shared one of the covers made by his friend per i Bluvertigo. “We had talked a lot with Max about what the cover of the album we were recording was supposed to be like and that he too listened to every day watching us at work.”
The common passion for music
“Max played, and how, with the same speed and amount of information with which he spoke he played the electric guitar and guitarists know something about it when Max came to the rehearsal room and took a guitar he knocked us down with solos that we could not understand he did as fast as he was. Once I remember that I was st *** o because I bypassed the distortion device while it was playing and suddenly we understood what it actually sounded under that armor of metal nastiness that is, something very different. It was as if he was completely naked“, Continues Morgan, who in celebrating the friend is a river in flood of memories.
