IL PAESE DEI BALOCCHI is a quartet from Lazio that recorded only one album for CGD in 1972.Their style is very similar to classic pop of the early seventies, very fashionable abroad. The record is ok; there are some passages that lack originality while others are interesting. The voice lacks in "presence" and is reduced to the minimum. The record shows the talent of keyboards player ARMANDO PAONE, author of the songs. There's also a string group ( that makes sense with all the classical references contained herein). After this album the group participated at the third festival of avantgarde in Naples. In 1973 they disappeared from the scenes.
