Few records were able to break through a music scene as "Aria" by Alan Sorrenti. It was 1972, Progressive Rock was at its peak, and basically out of nowhere appeared, as a lightning from a blue sky - on EMI / Harvest record label among other things - Alan Sorrenti, a half-Welsh artist heading from Naples. Parsons Project, from Naples but half Welsh, from the mother. This is a debut album at the same level of Banco's eponymous LP, P.F.M.'s "Storia di un minuto" or Area's "Arbeit Macht Frei". This reissue is identical to the original 1972 one in its artwork, and makes available again in LP format an album that, despite its popularity, is very difficult to find even in the most recent reprints. A welcome return, another 'must-have' for Italian prog listeners!
