Why this album is not listed on the Italianprog.com database is beyond me. It's Emerson, Lake & Palmer driven keyboard Prog basically with Psych and Pop overtones, composed by Italian conductor, pianist/keyboardist and arranger Victor Bacchetta back in the far 1972. So much Emerson, Lake & Palmer-driven actually that contains even a couple of Emerson, Lake & Palmer covers. Strong Classical influences with tons of acoustic piano and Hammond organ. Most songs are on the keyboard Prog field with lots of organ orgams, but there are strong orchestral Psych Pop flourishes throughout, which significantly lower the value of the album cause they sound outdated.If you love the sound of the Hammond organ, this album has many chances to please you.
