^ The two of those I don't know are the Procession and De De Lind albums.
Off the top of my head, some of my favourite 70s albums from Italy included in PA are: Franco Leprino - Integrati ... Disintegrati Franco Battiato - Sulle corde di Aries Picchio dal Pozzo - Picchio dal Pozzo Area - Caution Radiation Area Pierrot Lunaire - Gudrun Dedalus - Dedalus Goblin - Profondo rosso Fabio Frizzi - L'adila Some of those get much more appreciation than others from others, but all are greatly appreciated by me.

Hi, Goodness Ian ... you're only missing BANCO. Excellent list you put together though! I would have added ANGE as well, but at the time, they were very theatrical in their work, and I think it kinda throws progressive listeners off some. But their stuff was really beautiful, and worth having for their first 7 or 8 years ... and a must have ... the live album TOME VI.

Thanks, following my own listing will definitely give more structure to the thread, even it'll also require regularly viewing the thread for my new listing posts, which I don't think will come very often though.

^ I hope you don't mind me going ahead with my German albums, David, having already done a shorter list of Italian ones. It is nice to have that structure also to make it easier commenting on each other's lists. Took me some time to prepare, but I'd rather it be removed than interrupt or make worse the flow of the thread or just not be appreciated.

It's fine, Greg, I guess that people will have different approaches anyway.

France was my favourite country for years for music and so this list of some of my favourites is quite long. It's still missing so many I like. I adore Eskaton, which was recorded in 1978, so if that counts as a 1979 release, then that would be one of my very favourites from this long list. And only doing one per artist/ act.
Magma - Kobaïa (1970) Serge Gainsbourg - Histoire de Melody Nelson (1971) not in PA, but I think this album should be, could go under Vannier perhaps as he was arranger Igor Wakhévitch - Docteur Faust (1971) Komintern - Le bal du rat mort (1971) Jean-claude Vannier - L'enfant assassin des mouches (1972) Catherine Ribeiro + Alpes - Paix (1972) Alain Goraguer - La planète sauvage (1973) William Sheller - Lux Aeterna (1972) Alain Goraguer - La planète sauvage (1973) Gong - You (1974) (Gong formed in France) Janko Nilovic - Rythmes contemporains (1974) album recorded in France with Franch musicians, not in PA, but JRF worthy Zao - Osiris (1974) Wapassou - Wapassou (1974) Cortex - Troupean Bleu (1975) Jean-Philippe Goude & Olivier Colé - Jeunes années (1975) Besombes-Rizet - Pôle (1975) Clearlight - Clearlight Symphony (1975) Zanov - Green Ray (1976) Pascal Duffard - Dieu est Fou (1976) Teddy Lasry - E = MC² (1976) Jean Michel Jarre - Oxygène (1976) Yochk'o Seffer - Neffesh Music: Délire (1976) Carpe Diem - En regardant passer le temps (1976) Plat du Jour - Plat du Jour (1977) Archaïa - Archaïa (1977) Space Art - Trip in the Center Head (1977) Tim Blake - Crystal Machine (1977) Andre Fertier's Clivage - Mixtus Orbis (1978) Ose - Adonia (1978) Rialzu - Rialzu (1978) Richard Pinhas - Chronolyse (1978) Weidorje - Weidorje (1978) Jean-Pierre Alarcen - Jean-Pierre Alarcen (1978) * Eskaton - 4 Visions (1979, if it counts) Art Zoyd - Musique pour l’Odyssée (1979) Heldon - Stand By (1979) Vortex - Les cycles de Thanatos (1979) Rahmann - Rahmann (1979) Ma Banlieue Flasque - Ma Banlieue Flasque (1979) Laurent Thibault - Mais on ne peut pas rêver tout le temps (1979) Zed - Visions of Dune (1979) Arachnoïd - Arachnoïd (1979) Edited by Logan - 4 hours 1 minutes ago at 13:13 |
