The Review:

Nicola Randone's brand of progressive rock is more song based which he fuses other music styles to give a different flavor.

There are very straight-forward songs as well as some laced with ethinic origins as there's some reggae.

All songs are sung in Italian but Nicola's voice almost sounds like an instrument. I tend to over loo the non-english sung songs and see the voice as another instrument and very often this isn't the case.

I'm quite sure that Nicola will become a big music star in Italy and areas in the world where Italian is spoken and understood. To gain world-wide recognition, in his style of music, he may want to include some English vocals.

All in all a very nice collection of beautiful songs are found on this CD.
