CAPSICUM RED - APPUNTI PER UN'IDEA FISSA - 1972

Classical prog in a similar fashion to TRIADE, BANCO and Le ORME featuring Roberto Balocco (ex PANNA FREDDA) on drums and Red Canzian (guitars, vocals) who later would go on to play with both OSAGE TRIBE and POOH. Side 1 of this album is simply a prog masterpiece with their entire side long suite... a rearrangement of Beethoven's "Patetica". The remaining 5 songs explore a wide host of themes and moods with rich piano, organ and moog etched landscapes. Acoustic and electric guitar work is choice as is the bass and percussive contributions. CAPSICUM RED fuse delicate romantic passages with more aggressive classic 70's Ital-Prog influences. For those who are lucky enough to have Vinyl Magic's remastered version will find a cleaned up sound reporduction and additional songs from their early days where it all began. Fans of classic 70's Italian Progressive can not do without this album
