An ultrarare and expensive album that has never been reissued in any form. No counterfeits exist.
Not a real prog band, I Boom were a 60's beat band who released their only album as late as 1973. In their beginnings the singer was Vittorio Lombardi and the group (renamed Boom 67 or Boom 69) played often at the Piper Club opening for foreign acts like Spencer Davis Group and Small Faces. They also played at the Italian Pop Festival held in april 1971 at the Kilt Club in Rome.
The sound is beat inspired and like similar bands (Il Mucchio, I Raminghi) is closer to the sixties's sound than to prog atmospheres, but it's worth listening, if you can have it taped!
The opening Luce e vita, Improvvisamente notte and the long and more complex Il padre sono io with an instrumental keyboard part reminding of some 70's bands are the best moments of an album that would at least deserve a CD reissue. italianprog
