INTORNO ALLA MIA CATTIVA EDUCAZIONE

Another one-shot Italian gem. here are the things I like most about the album: It doesn't sound like an English prog band in the least, except maybe where the flute comes in which may conjure up thoughts of Ian Anderson, but it's wholly original. All the songs meld into each other seamlessly. The lead singers voice goes from a raspy Joe Cocker to a quiet croon, some don't like Duty Cirla's voice but I think it's excellent and soulful. They use multiple instruments with none outdoing the other, just wonderful music which is pastoral, jazzy and rocks at different intervals throughout the album with one track, ('Perche' Ho Venduto Il Mio Sangue') being a vocal track without music. So if you don't understand Italian, (like me) it's a useless track. The last thing I like about the album is that there are times where a choir comes in and sings with Cirla. It sounds very heavenly. So overall, I give the album a four-star rating. There are no standout tracks but as a whole it is excellent.
