I GRANDI SUCCESSI DEL ROCK PROGRESSIVO ITALIANO

Before I bought this compilation I had no idea such a thing as Italian prog existed. Actually, I was very doubful that Italy produced anything worth listening to since Vivaldi. Well, I'm glad to report that I was wrong. This compilation is altogether quite enjoyable and features some fantastic pieces. It is also well built together, which is something that I would have thought difficult for prog music. My preference goes for the rather pop tune of Tito Schipa Jr (Venditore di felicita), but more prog oriented stuff, often in the style of early ELP albums, are definitely worth a try.
