IO E IL TEMPO

This was the third album from the fine Italian progrock band Nuova Era. Their debut CD "L'ultimo viaggio" sounded promising but a bit precarious, their second "Dopo l'infinito" strong but very ELP inspired.

My first session with "Io e il tempo" evoked good feelings, I quickly took the conclusion that Nuova Era had delivered their best work: what a pleasant climates and what a beautiful compositions! The album contains two long tracks, very tasteful and alternating, from dreamy to powerful and bombastic. The sound of the guitar and keyboards is wonderful, the duels are good and we also can enjoy many strong soli on guitar and keyboards. The vocals are distinctive but on the background, in general Nuova Era makes instrumental music. The final song is a short bonustrack. This is a CD to discover, FORZA ITALIA!
