I found this young Italian guitarist on a Facebook post, check out his technique! His playing is very Fripp-like (alternate picking, left hand etc.), but then he blends fretboard tapping into it! Very nice!!

hey.. while in Rome. I remember there was a bitchin mom and pop album store not far from the main train station. LOTS of great stuff prog/progressive wise. Italian and German especially. Hopefully it is still there.
Raff? We haven't been in that part of Rome in some time. |

There is a nice record shop in Venice, close to the Rialto bridge. In Florence the best shop I have found is in a street close to the Duomo. Can't remember the name. The guy sells instuments too. He's the producer of a the Kay Hoffman's album : Floret Silva, with guys from Pierrot Lunaire.
Good luck.

Hello Carlos, and welcome to PA
 ! I am originally from Rome, and can tell you that there are a few independent music stores left there, though not as many as there used to be in the past. Anyway, you can occasionally find interesting stuff even in mainstream stores such as Feltrinelli (there are a few of these in the centre of Rome). Here are a couple of links to the websites of independent stores:Transmission Records (http://lnx.transmission.it/catalog/contact_us.php) Pink Moon (http://www.pinkmoonrecords.com/) Edited by Raff - June 14 2015 at 17:48 |

Hi,
I am a great lover of italian prog rock bands and I own a reasonable collection of italian CDs. As I have most of the old scholl classics records (PFM, Le Orme, Banco, etc), I'm always looking for cds from new bands. I have a great wishlist. Next month I'm going to Italy on vacation for the first time. I'll be on Venice, Florence and Rome. I understand that some there are some native italians in this forum. Maybe they could indicade CD shops in those cities where I could find CDs from somewhat obscure new italian prog rock bands? Thanks in advance, Carlos Brito

I've listening to this album a few days ago and I realized I can't remember it was mentioned here.
Guercia - Guercia Figura Goffa  I'm always intrigued to find new albums from the 70's but good albums from the 80's sometimes fascinates me even more. This is a great album released in 82', and once you've got passed the 80's drums sounds you're in for a treat! There's some really tasty guitar playing here and overall the material is really good. Kind of reminds me of an Italian version of Amenophis. So does anybody know this little obscure gem? Here's a sample

Best voted italian band of the year in the Progressive Rock Symphonic segment.
They sing in English, their dimension flows way out Italy's state lines. They welcome in the new release SKYLINE the father of Italian Rock Progressivo Sinfonico (mr.Vittorio De Scalzi) and mr.Paul Whitehead (need I mention his works and who with? ;) ) Take a peek, they are the Barock Project. best kept secret in modern production...but now I am afraid it's too late!
