I'll give you some recommendations...
- LE ORME - all their albums from "Collage" (1971) until "Florian" (1979) and IL FIUME (1996), ELEMENTI (2001), L' INFINITO (2004)
- AREA - their first five albums
- ALAN SORRENTI - ARIA (1972)
- DALTON - RIFLESSIONI: IDEA D' INFINITO (1973)
- ............................................................ .............
I didn't include new prog bands and many solo albums.
|
I heard about 50% of albums listed and agree with most titles.
But I have some notes.
LE ORME - all their albums from "Collage" (1971) until "Florian" (1979) and IL FIUME (1996), ELEMENTI (2001), L' INFINITO (2004)
- Why until "Florian"? IMO it is very good acoustic album, which, as well as its succcessor, "Piccola rapsodia dell'ape", deserves to be listened.
AREA - their first five albums
- Surely not a band for everyone. Only for those who like avant-garde stuff.
ALAN SORRENTI - ARIA (1972)
- IMO it's not a good choice for start. Good songwriter, but I think many (like me) will find his voice too annoying.
DALTON - RIFLESSIONI: IDEA D' INFINITO (1973)
- Totally agree!!! Transferred from vinyl (master tapes lost?), only 28 minutes long, but what a wonderful album! Great songwriting, flute and keyboard work. Why this band is not still included in PA?

I don't think THE TRIP is similar to ELP, but not bad at all.
Interesting enough, Ritchie Blackmore was in the first THE TRIP line-up (before band's debut album).

In my opinion "Exit" is a little bit too poppy and commercial

I am new to the Italian prog scene but I really like what I have heard so far.
I will pick PFM,since they are the band that got me into it.
