Acqua Fragile – s/t. 1973 Italy


Acqua Fragile – s/t. 1973 Numero Uno. Original comes in a cool 4 poster cover.

+++ Recommended Reissue. 2011 Esoteric. With liner notes and unique photos. No bonus tracks, but definitely the best sounding CD version out there. I also own the Japanese mini-LP on BMG (2004), which features the original cover in great detail.

Given that Acqua Fragile sing in English, their sound is more typical of the UK progressive rock movement (elements of Genesis, Yes and Gentle Giant are obvious). Despite that, I still find both Acqua Fragile albums appealing - and Lanzetti has a unique voice that served PFM well for many years afterward.
