Post Description
Studio Album, released in 1973, Italy.
Rock Progressivo Italiano.
One of the more interesting, personal and innovative and unfortunately band from Italy. Unfortunately bacause the all Banco del Mutuo Soccorso's staff work for this album and the band is disbanded when a member was arrested (and the disc almost not even published), stopping the dreams of a band that would have been able to be one of the better, not only in Italy. Interesting, personal and innovative because not having the keyboards but the saxes section the instrumental parts are Jazz Rock but the vocal parts (with the good and exciting voice of Rocky Rossi) are too Rock and Symphonic. So it talks about Symphonic Jazz Rock. In this sense "Il Soldato" or "Io Robot" are very good examples of Rocky's Filj style. Interesting the long "L'Ultima Spiaggia" really boiling, mix between Art Rock, Symphonic and Jazz (for resonance). The instrumental "E" is, instead, a good Jazz Rock. The final piece "Martino" is a really photocopy of the previous sung songs. But with symphonic very exciting final with sax. Interesting one interlude in "L'Ultima Spiaggia" and the intro of "Io Robot" with double-bass and flute that are two good examples of Romantic classic music.
