1978 - GLI DEI SE NE VANNO, GLI ARRABBIATI RESTANO!

I bought this LP when it was released in 1978. Even before I listened to it for the first time, I knew it would be different from their previous albums. Guitarist Paolo Tofani was gone, and there was no replacement. The LP was not on the Cramps label, and the artwork had a different look to it. I remember thinking that Area had gone commercial after I listened to it. For years, I listened to only the final track, "Vodka Cola". When I got the CD (found at a pawn shop for $4, the first Italian Prog CD I'd ever seen at that time), I listened with "new" ears. It's got several good tracks on it, and compares well with the rest of their catalogue.
