I'd have to chose between Melos, Pollution, Anima Latina (very nice pick Pierre), Sulle Corde di Aires, Crac! and a couple ones I'm forgetting right this minute.

Area - THE ESSENTIAL BOX SET COLLECTION


A little fast and loose with the rules there, Mr Progman!  Nice collection though - especially if you take out Event '76, use it as a frisbee, and replace with e.g. the 1978 album.

Hold on a second - what's wrong with Event '76?TongueLOL

Nahh don't answer that. I hear they use it as part of an interrogation program in Uzbekistan.

As for the actual question, any of my likely choices were already picked, in reality it's probably between Ys and one of the first four Area studio albums (though don't ask which one!).

If I had to choose something that wasn't already mentioned, maybe Il Paese dei Balocchi, I'm pretty fond of that one.

Ahh the beautiful valium tour de forceApprove
I mean that as a compliment btw. There's just something very heady and valium-like to that album.

Il Paese is a very special album, one of the most mysterious of RPI.

I dig what you are saying... I put the RRR album in that category... and since I doubt anyone will mention it...

#6 of the albums I'd save...

I doubt someone mentions this. And though it's one of me favorites.

I know what you mean about that mysterious vibe.

Mind you when it comes to the lyrics pretty much all RPI is mysterious to me.  For all I know Franco Battiato could be singing about blue and purple space rabbits doing battle over a cosmic carrot.

Some of you probably would kill me, but for the second album that i would save from the fire would be or Egonon - Risveglio or Il Paradiso Degli Orchi - Il Corponauta, i haven't listened to so much beautiful and original music like in these two.

Far too difficult - but I still like to ask: 

A lot of my actual italian favorites falls outside the so-called RPI-genre (Dedalus, Picchio Dal Pozzo and Aktualas debuts, Sensational Fix - Portable Madness, Pierrot Lunaire - Gudrun, Perigeo - Genealogia... to name some of them) so is any kind of italian favorite progalbum ok or just RPI?

 (To my ears Area falls outside as well, but I see they they've been moved to RPI from jazz fusion)
