Great Italian prog!

(4 out of 5 stars)

"This CD was made especially for Arti & Mestieri's 1st USA appearance at ProgDay in Chapel Hill, NC. They finished it just in time for their appearance in 2003, but the shipment was 'lost' by the airlines and didn't make it in time. Finally they got them back, but too late for the US show. The band played an outstanding set and although this CD is not a recording of that set, it shows their musicianship has withstood the sands of time. They were a 'classic' progressive Italian band in the '70s and these recent recordings of some of their classics including 'Articolazioni' which is one of my favorites from their album 'Tilt' just shines. Although this is not a long CD, it's worth getting for any fan of Italian prog. I gave it 4 stars only because it's too short!
