DNA

This album is great, simply because there is nothing missing in it.

Hearty (and heart-impacting) vocals from Alvaro Fella gives it a unique impact (and gives "some" special surrounding effects...), while instrumentation is fantastic, with passages ranging between rock & blues & jazz, "some" Tull-flutes, "some" fusion- saxes, "some" ac/guitars-games, "some" stunning-percussions, "some" distorted el/guitars- breaks interrupting acoustic moments.

Once more, an italian album collecting all the "best" from different prog rock streams, in the name of... PROG-ROCK!

Agreeing on the fact side-A is one of the best results of the 70s scene (at least in Italian scene, but I'd cross the borders...), I consider highly recommended also side-B pieces, with Miss Rand crescendo 'cause the fire first destroys her house then kills her, ending up with the peaceful atmosphere of her ... funeral, or the "sad" song (but great music) about the bad sensation of feeling yourself old, and the beautiful "hai visto", with a reprise of the side-A atmosphere.

Apart the without-any-doubt great musicianship of the band members, the top-class evaluation is helped by the emotional factor generated by the album in its whole.
