Picchio dal Pozzo's sophomore release is quite a departure from their debut. In fact, it's not until track 4 that the album demonstrates a rock element at all. This is tried and true avant prog, bordering chamber music. Only at the end, on the near 16 minute track on Side 2, does the band show their Italian prog meets Canterbury roots, and essentially saves the album from the sell bin.
Ownership: LP: 1980 L'Orchestra. Online acquisition (2018). Sealed copy no less. Loose importer's seal of course, and the flexi was not to be found. This LP replaces the CD which had replaced the Japanese LP that I first purchased in 1992.
1992; 4/1/19; 3/12/22 (LP 3.7); 12/24/22 (new entry)
