Dallas:
I would strongly suggest changing it to one vote only. I would like to vote, and will not do so on multiple vote polls, since they really aren't of any value.
Peace.

Two of my all time fovorites

My personal choice is PFM Storia di un minuto. It has great songs like "Impressioni di settembre" and "dove? Quando?". Also it is the first prog album I ever heard and brings lots of memories to me. What, sentimentality isn´t allowed?

Also, I resent the absence of Il rovescio della medaglia. Perhaps they have made only one good album, but some album!

I haven't heard "Per Un Amico", but I've got 3 other PFM albums, and they're all superb - so it has to be PFM whatever!

Best album cover...hmm...definitely not self-title 'Banco', yikes!
Probably Le Orme's Uomo di Pezza or Storia O Leggenda...they look like they sound, especially Uomo...

PFM was the most "stylish" prog band in Italy. Their "Impressione Di Settembro" live in Tokyo 2000 is beautiful...
Photos Of Ghost is fantastic, but Micro is right, Istoria Di Un Minuto bring back memories...

If you havent heard anything but the top three bands
PFM, Banco, and Le Orme from Italy
I would like to make some suggestions beyond
those bands
Il Volo / Essere, o non essere
New Trolls/ Concerto Grosso no. 1
Locanda della Fate/ Forse le Lucciole non si Amano
Semiramis/ Dedecado A Frazz
Osanna/ Palepoli
Biglietto per L’Inferno/ same
Museo Rosenbach/ Zarathustra
Maxophone/ same
Il Balletto di Bronzo/ Ys
the italian versions are the best as the english is
kinda lame
Il Volo is the only one that only has one track with
italian vocals the rest is great!
1st side of New Trolls is the best suite in Italian prog
and Semiramis musically is unbelievable, different
album everytime you play it
Locanda is beautiful
you should at least give these four a try!
harder rock - Biglietto and Museo
jazzy -Osanna and Maxo
complex - Balletto

I don't have any of those albums .... am I missing a lot?
PS: My favourite bands would be: King Crimson, GY!BE, Camel, Yes, Genesis, Camel, Rush, Soft Machine, Gong, Caravan, Anglagard, Pink Floyd & nbsp; which of those could you compare the italian style to?

Try the mp3s on their band pages in the archives, there's one for almost all of the albums mentioned here.
