I think I know seven of these. The best one is Darwin (of course one of those you only gave three stars - you're a very reliable man Tongue

In that case, I'm guessing my 5-star picks wouldn't appeal to you. Tongue

The Trip-Atlantide, which I feel is the group's greatest record...an essential....

Storia di un Minuto, but I love about half of these. I'm surprised you gave Tardo Pede in Magium Versus a five star. I like it a lot myself, but I would have guessed it wasn't for you. It has got to be your weirdest favorite album by far?

Jacula's debut was one of the first Italian albums I ever listened to and it still remains a magical album for me. I also like Antonius Rex - virtually the same band as Jacula but with a different name. Smile

Oh I really didn't like Antonius Rex at all, and nothing post Jacula's debut has had any appeal. I also think Neque Semper Arcum Tendit Rex is fake. As in not a genuine 1974 album. That cheesy guitar sound and generally awful production didn't really exist back then. At least they've must have re-recorded the guitars and drums in the late 1990's or early 2000's. The beyond awful In Cauda Semper Stat Venenum was originally presented as a 1969 album (back when internet was young:). I never believed that it could be, and now it's considered a 2001-release.

-Anyway, the rest of my favorites here apart from PFM's first are really both the BMS's, PFM's second, Le Orme, and Il Balletto de Bronzo followed by Jacula's first:)

I wanted to vote different from the rest, owning many of these. I am an avid fan of the genre. At the end though, I had to pick Per Un Amico. Lovely album.

Wait until we get in a few years. I just might break away from the pack! I have a few unexpected favorites in the coming years poll.

So many good albums and what a good year!

BMS's debut is a jewel, like Darwin, Osanna, QVL , PFM, Balleto, The Trip...

I gave a vote to the album with Il giardino del mago.

Darwin. I like Banco much more than PFM, and Darwin is my favourite album from them. Such a special singer Francesco. As for PFM, I like Storia di un Minuto much more than Per un Amico.

Banco's Darwin. There are a lot of pixels trapped in my nose hairs.

indeed, a very solid Italian year (the best with 75 by a margin maybe)

I haven't heard everything in the list and if I like BVC, maybe it shouldn't be in the list since I believe it wasn't really released as sucj, then. Stern Smile

Despite that, I retain 10 albums from that list but feel that there is one huge absent: Flea's Topi O Uomini.

Banco del Mutuo Soccorso - Darwin

Franco Battiato - Pollution

Buon Vecchio Charlie - Buon Vecchio Charlie

Garybaldi - Nuda

Il Balleto di Bronzo - Ys

Jumbo - DNA

Osanna - Palepoli

Perigeo - Azimut

Premiata Forneria Marconi - Storia di un Minuto

Quella Vechia Locanda - Quella Vechia Locanda

I will probably give my vote to an album that needs it most (Perigeo or Jumbo).

let's just stay above the moral melee
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

There's always one huge album I manage to miss out, so that's a Flea in my ear for missing that one. Smile

Of these, I think Ys is the best, but Per un amico is my favorite.

I don's listen to PPI as much as I did when I joined this site, but lots I like here. I feel like going with Banco del Mutuo Soccorso's self-titled over Storia di un minuto, Ys, Darwin!, and Perigeo in particular today.
