2 stars Battiato was in the 70's Italian artist more closer to Krautrock and the Fluxus movement. But from L'Era del Cinghiale Bianco Battiato tranform his style in an extreme good POP, Keeping an exponent of the most original avant-garde. But in this case Battiato produces only an album of covers, not good and not bad. My review, for this motive might end here. Because while it is true that Battiato transforms the songs here included in his songs it is equally true that there is no trace of Prog. Certainly Impressioni Di Settembre is Prog... But not in this version. Another thing to point out is that this album is also too heavy. It is not easy to listen from start to finish to all in a breath. Even if it has good moments (Insieme A Te Non Ci Sto Pił, Il Cielo In Una Stanza, Impressioni Di Settembre for examples) it sounds as if these versions of the songs we had already listen. So I must admit that Fleurs 3 is not a memorable album.
