I'm hoping someone (one of you from this thread?) would make a history of Italian Prog video, just doing a narration.   

Are there some good links online for such an essay?

A good album, Mike. But I'm not a big fan of the vocals, not the singer, the melodies.

Cheers, Todd, and I had to check if your comment wasn't actually written by me, as I adore those organ fuelled albums too!

Crap, I've already sent off my list, when I hear back I might send him a quick reply asking for this one to be included in it!

Pierre, on that same new Walker list, I was curious about this (Non-Italian again! ) title:



http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=8031

The clips that I heard on Youtube didn't sound brilliant, but I still kind of liked them!

Would you recommend it?

Pierre! I already sent off an order last night, and that was one of the titles I selected! Great minds, human AND duck, think alike, it seems!

I did like the Youtube clips I heard of it!

Thank you, my friend!

Pretty in line with the first album, although the second half gets a little more jazzy and heavier!

Man, their keyboard player Emanuele Tarasconi is a damn talent! Whole band is great!

I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.
