Procession (italy)
Fiaba (clear)
Two very different albums by two almost totally different bands, is all that Procession have left us. This band from
Turin made their first album 'Frontiera' in 1972 for the small Help label (an RCA subsidiary that also released Quella
Vecchia Locanda's first album), a good album that can be easily
described as an hard prog LP. With a line-up of two guitars, bass and drums, and the original high pitched voice of
singer Gianfranco Gaza, the band plays very good hard rock with some progressive influences and acoustic passages. Not
particularly original, the album has its moments and it's particularly rare.
The band reappeared in 1974 with a new line-up and a new recording deal, this time it's Fonit that releases their second
album 'Fiaba.' A mature work, much more original than their first and more in a symphonic vein with large use of sax and
flute with guest appearances by drummer Francesco Froggio
Francica (from Raccomandata Con Ricevuta Di Ritorno), Delirium's keyboard player Ettore Vigo and Circus 2000 female
singer Silvana Aliotta, while drummer Roberto Balocco (ex-Capsicum Red) helped the group in concert. Despite a good live
activity Procession never gained the success they deserved and despite two good albums they broke up in 1975. Comes on
180 gram clear vinyl.
