3 stars This album features several well known prog songs from prog giants all over Europe.

Indeed ''Bouree'' from Tull is featured. But my fave from them all is the PFM one ''Impressioni Di Settembre''. At least the vocals conveys these emotions that the Italian genre holds so many. I can't say the same about their version of ''House Of The Kings'' (from the Dutch masters ''Focus'').

Another great moment from this work is a faithful rendition of ''Hands Of The Priestess'' from Steve Hackett's masterpiece ''Voyage Of The Acolyte''. So, if you are in the mood of listening to some sort of a tribute album, why not spend some time with this one.

For sure, it holds nothing revolutionary. This is a tranquil record which is fine on a Sunday afternoon. Who wouldn't like to hear the fine Banco song ''R.I.P.''? Indeed!

Not bad a record, but I'm not quite sure it was all necessary.Three stars because it holds some of the must have of prog music.
