IL SALE DEI NEW TROLLS

This one is probably the worst album in The New Troll's discography. There's no trace of progressive-rock here, just weak melodic pop in early Bee Gees style. For me, there are only two tracks to save: "Ladri di poesie" and "Come il sole ad est". There are two covers: the interesting Ivano Fossati's "La musica che gira intorno" (Ivano Fossati, former Delirium's flutist and singer, is now one of the most influent Italian singer-songwriters) and Renato Zero's "Il cielo" (Renato Zero is a melodic Italian singer-songwriter with a long career and the producer of this album). The other originals are to forget. The weak final track is a duet with another melodic singer-songwriter, Umberto Bindi. Well, if you're not completionists, avoid this album!
