All have put out amazing albums (Goblin's `Roller' is still a top 5 favourite for me for prog in general), but I'd have to vote Le Orme here, as they have several stunners in a row, pretty much the run of `Collage' through to `Florian' (kind of excluding the mostly average `Smogmagica', which is still listenable) is superb.

Like them all and have album(s) from each, but Le Orme for sure. They were one of the first RPI bands that I heard that lured me into that genre.

Alphataurus is incredible, in fact that album cover is my favourite of all time. I'd rate their debut in my top two with "Ys".

A difficult choice between Alphataurus and Le Orme. I vote for Alphataurus.

I love Attosecondo. And love all these bands, but definitely Le Orme - Uomo Di Pezza being a 6 stars out of 5 album for me, but even Venerdi holds its own character.
