Luciano Basso - Voci (1978) 

I listened to Voci recently after putting it away for a 
year or so, and the quality of the album suddenly 
stunned me. For some reason Voci didn't grab me at 
first. Sure, I thought that it was good, but it didn't stay 
in the ol' CD player for too long. Voci is an 
instrumental classic. Basically, Luciano Basso plays 
tons of vintage keyboards(hammond, clavinet, piano, 
and mellotron), wrote all of the material, and is 
helped out by a violinist, guitarist, bassist, and 
drummer. The instrumental pieces are pure Italian 
symphonic progressive rock, consisting of multiple 
parts, countermelodies, theme development, and 
that beautiful Italian sound that we all love.
