Locanda delle Fatte?

The correct spelling is Locanda delle Fate with only one T!

In our common language Locanda delle Fatte would mean: Drug-Addict-Women's Inn!!!

P.S. ...and I haven't spoken about the errors of my english!!!

What does that name mean, by the way?

It is a bank within a solidarist scope. Litterally:"bank of reciprocal help".

Le Orme for me...Even though I'm italian I've always considered italian-prog not much more than a british-prog copy, and more than this I've always hated italian traditional songwriting and sounds, so that even great moments of italian scene didn't get me so much. But Le Orme completely changed my opinion _ and that's strange because ingredients of their music are the ones I didn't like_ and since them I also appreciated Uovo di Colombo, Balletto di Bronzo, Perigeo,Locanda delle Fate. (not as well Banco and PFM)

Collage is a Masterpiece (listen to "Immagin"i)

I vote for Museo Rosenbach but I was torn between them and Il Balletto di Bronzo. Y's is a terriffic album but Museo Rosenbach Zarathrusta is more close to my taste.It's very difficult to choose just one band from this brillant scene of progressive music. I discover a lot of incredible albums since I listen to italian bands (for about 1 1/2 year) such as I Giganti, Quella Vecchia Locanda and Le Orme. Just last week, I listen to Latte E Miele "Papillon" for the first time and was very pleased with it, even on the first listen.I want to buy their albums soon.

I really love Banco and PFM. Lately though I've been hearing Nuova Era which I find very good as well. Of the 70's bands I also love Quella Vecchia Locanda (which are not on the poll ), Le orme and Locanda delle Fatte.

Most consistently for me ... it is PFM ... but what a magnificent scene ...
"Death to Utopia! Death to faith! Death to love! Death to hope?" thunders the 20th century. "Surrender, you pathetic dreamer.”

"No" replies the unhumbled optimist "You are only the present."

Keep up the good work, Erik  (I discovered almost any Italian cd I own because of his reviews!)

And... I voted for PFM with Le Orme as second best

Great to notice that more and more progheads are discovering the beauty and excitement of the Italian prog of the Seventies  !!

I voted for Le Orme (with PFM as second best) because of their superb blend of ELP inspired keyboards play (but more varied) and the wonderful melancholical vocals and acoustic guitar along the great compositional skills. What a pity that so many splendid Italian bands like Museo Rosenbach and Cherry Five only made one album   ...

FORZA ITALIA!!!
