One of the classic Italian prog albums comes across as a cross between Jethro Tull and Led Zeppelin. Flute monster accentuated by the great keyboard work of Baffo Banfi.

  • Nuova Idea

    In The Beginning
    Progressive Rock
    First album from this Italian band featured a heavier sound not to far from Deep Purple.  There are prog and psych moves so if you want to call it "proto-prog" you wouldn't be far off the mark.

  • Dear Mr. Time

    Grandfather (Vinyl)
    Progressive Rock
    Authorized vinyl edition, limited to 500 copies.This is one of those overlooked gems that only hardcore prog collectors know about and with good reason. The band was signed to the obscure Square Records label and purportedly only 1000 copies were pressed back in 1971. OK - so what hell does it sound like? Basically a head on collision between ITCOTCK King Crimson and The Moody Blues. The album is drenched in Mellotron. flute, and sax leads channeling Ian McDonald. Yeah its a concept album that you'll find a bit corny at this point but probably seemed like a great idea at the time. So the story ended for these guys in the typical fashion - bad management, bad decisions, and a bad contract. The band dissolved after the one album and the rest is history. Definitely up there with Spring, Cressida, Fantasy and their ilk. Apart from Czar and the later day Australian band The Moffs, I can't think of a band that bore such a strong musical similarity to the first iteration of Crimson. Highest recommendation.

  • Capsicum Red

    Appunti Per Un'Idea Fissa
    Progressive Rock
    Short lived Italian prog band that recorded this one album for the Bla Bla label (home of Battiato). The band is notable for the inclusion of band member Red Canzian who had a loooong career with I Pooh (I believe they are still together). Capsicum Red's music was pretty typical of the Italian prog style - a strong classical rock approach - they even tackle Beethoven's Patetica Suite. One of my guilty pleasures from Italy.

  • Brainticket

    Psychonaut (Digipak)
    Psychedelic
    This must be the 100th version of this great album to see CD.  This is a new digipak version on Cleopatra.  Remastered, it includes a bonus album - the rare Drum Circus "Magic Theatre" which was a precursor to Brainticket."Second album from this seminal Swiss psych band. Led by keyboardist Joel Vandroogenbroeck, Brainticket's overall sound is a bit hard to pinpoint. The band touches on psych but prog as well. One tends to think of them as a psych/krautrock band and that really isn't that too far off the mark. The band incorporates blissful tripped out serene moments juxtaposed by ripping lead guitar. Organ swirls, flute accents, and wasted female vocals are the order of the day...there is even a bit of a west coast psych feel that barely creeps through. I bet these guys would have gone down a ton at the old Fillmore West. The Brainticket catalog has been available as a budget line release from Bellaphon for many years."

    Landscape Of Life
    Progressive Rock
    Fourth and final studio album from the original lineup. Still plenty of good stuff here but marred a bit by an attempt at English vocals.

    Men Who Climb Mountains 2019 (2CD)
    Progressive Rock
    "Men Who Climb Mountains 2019 is an updated version of the 2014 release. This version is the same as the one included in the First 40 Years box set and only now becomes available as a separate release double CD. All the drums have been re recorded by new drummer Jan Vincent Velazco, and the whole album has been remixed by Karl Groom and Nick Barrett."Disc 1Belle AmeBeautiful SoulCome Home JackIn BardoFaces Of LightFaces Of DarknessFor When The Zombies ComeExplorers Of The InfiniteNetherworld Disc 2 Live At TwigsThe VoyagerA Man Of  Nomadic TraitsThis Green And Pleasant LandNostradamusPaintboxKing Of The CastleIndigo FreakshowMasters Of IllusionSpace CadetEdge Of The WorldIt’s only MeOur original write up:Its been three years since the last Pendragon album.  To be honest I hadn't checked in on them in quite some time so it was interesting to listen to their latest - it was very different from what I expected.  Guitarist Nick Barrett has gone all Roger Waters on us - he wrote all the music and lyrics - so this really has evolved very much into a personal vehicle for him.  The usual bandmates of Peter Gee and Clive Nolan are on board and now joined by new drummer Craig Blundell.  Men Who Climb Mountains is a concept album but Barrett isn't spelling it out - you're going to have to work at this one.  The musical mission of the band has clearly changed over the years.  Don't have any hesitation - its full on prog but much more contemporary sounding.  The symphonic flourishes from the old days aren't quite so obvious - which isn't to say you won't notice Clive Nolan's presence.  Its simply that this is a bit more of a guitar driven vehicle than decades ago and Barrett's mournful solos have that nice Hackett-esque feel that always draws my attention.  I have to say I'm impressed.  Highly recommended.
