I've noticed over the last few days that there is a lot of Italien Prog music being played. This may be because Moonies have been inspired by the recent additions to the playlist of the Malibran albums donated by Teermin8r (thanks tee).

I was wondering what people's fave Italien bands were. My own faves are PFM (naturally) and Finisterre.

I saw PFM when they first came over to the UK just before the "Photos of Ghosts" album was released on ELP's Manticore label and was immediately hooked. The next time I went to Italy I hunted down the albums they had released in their home country and was really taken with the songs sung in Italian. They gave the music a totally different feel.

Finisterre I discovered via Aural Moon and their live album "Storybook" is well worth getting and/or investigating via the playlist.

Any other thoughts on this chaps/chapesses?
