Etna over Agora, leaning more to the jazzy stuff here.

Crac! sans doute! One of the greatest jazz-rock fusion albums ever created--on any continent! Why this AREA lineup isn't mentioned in the same discussions with the Mahavishnu, Return To Forever, Herbie Hancock, Weather Report, Nucleus/Soft Machine, Miles Davis, Alan Holdsworth names and band members I cannot figure out!

Apoteosi the best Italian album of any year
All I like is prog related bands beginning late 60's/early 70's. Their music from 1968 - 83 has the composition and sound which will never be beaten. Perfect blend of jazz, classical, folk and rock.

As a hardcore Goblin fan, I'm compelled to throw Cherry Five a vote since it predates Profondo Rosso and features the nucleus of Simonetti, Pignatelli and Morante.

Goblin this time. An egg sack of sodium-placemat dualism.

It's between:
Goblin - Profondo Rosso
Area - Crac!
...but I quite like these two as well:

                   I have been facebook friends with the lead guitar player of Libra for several years, Nicola di Staso, a very nice man. Asked him repeatedly about the possible issue of English lyric Libra albums onto cd, but he knows nothing about that (so far).
                        As others, I love hearing the original Italian lyrics whenever possible with Italian prog, but the Libra debut just sounds so amazing in English that it has become my version of choice...
                       Lead vocalist and rhythm guitar player for Libra, Federico D'Andrea, was run over by a car and killed in the fall of 1978! Such a senseless loss.
Thanks. There were three different titles to choose from for the Libra album, so I was a little bit confused, although that's nothing new at my age. Tongue 
You are welcome, Paul.

Arti E Mestieri - Giro de Valzer per Domani  

Etna - Etna          

Nova - Blink

Perigeo - La Valle dei Templi

prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword
