As much as I try to fight the obvious, I must say that PFM have worn me down ... I only know about 2/3 of the bands properly though ... for now ...

This is great stuff! I love the guitar work in this album. Some other great 70's bands that are not mentioned yet: Alphataurus - s/t Alusa Fallax - Intorno alla mia Cattiva Educazione Apoteosi - s/t Campo di Marte - s/t Cervello - Melos J.E.T - Fede Speranza Carita Latte e Miele - Passio Secundum Mattheum, Papillon Osanna - Palepoli Raccomandata Ricevuta Ritorno - Per... Un Mondo di Cristallo Alan Sorrenti - Aria |

The one band missing from the Poll or any postings so far (unless I overlooked it) is Semiramis, who recorded a completely mindblowing album in 1973 called 'Dedicato A Frazz'. Frightening, almost proto-metal guitar work and rhythms, smashed up against Genesis/'Nursery Cryme'-era textures. A bit like Biglietto Per L'inferno's first album, because it's raw, dark, heavy but still symphonic and sublime. Hail SEMIRAMIS!

My top 5:
Banco - Darwin! Biglietto per L'inferno - s/t Locanda delle Fate - Forse le Lucciole non si Amano Piu Museo Rosenbach - Zarathustra Quella Vecchia Locanda - s/t I find all these and many other 70's italian albums superior compared to anything released by the english bands. Some people seem to complain about the italian vocals. For me it's hard to understand this. I believe it's because I have loved the italian vocals since the first time I heard italian prog. I prefer italian vocals over english vocals any day. It doesen't bother me att all that I don't understand the vocals. Besides, in most cases the vocalists a simply fantastic. There are only a few english vocalists that can compare. This is just my opinion. Needed to get this off my chest. |

There are many greats, but no one can beat the beauty and greatness of Storia di un Minuto and Per un Amico.
Museo Rosenbach come in close second, followed by Area and Il Balleto di bronzo |
