Very interesting what you say and you say it very well, I don't know them but I'll have them soon because that kind really interests me, it reminds me of when I had hair. Regards.

Wow!!! The Magna Carta!!! I have them all!!! Great Mr. Doctor, this is indeed a wonderful homecoming. I recommend them to everyone for their refinement and elegance as well as for the great expertise in the executions. Well done Mr. Doctor, you have delivered a broadside that makes the Elizabethan vessel waver. Regards.

Great review and top-level album. @supersoul: I heard him last week in Asti, he put on a nice concert but it was very dry and too precise, an hour and a half and off he went with just one hasty encore. I excuse him because he is great and because he hasn't been very well lately. Regards

I fully agree, I know this album well and the cover too!!! I'm glad you reviewed it, it was one I would have liked to do as well, but in front of such beautiful writing... Ubi Maior... I find the closing to be absolutely hilarious!!! Regards

Nice review, like all yours; I'm not familiar with the album, and after reading what it's about, I'm not that attracted to it... mumble... I'll think about it. Cheers.

I don't love anthologies or tributes, but when I read reviews about them on Jam or Busca and curiosity takes hold of me, I sometimes end up acquiring them. You, my dear doctor, have piqued my interest somewhat, but I must tell you that the ash is now completely absent from my abode; having to sprinkle myself with an entire bald head, I believe I too will have to take advantage of your kind neighbor if he would be so courteous as to send me a package. Let him know that I am not equipped like you with pneumatic mail and that my mailbox is one of those small ones, so he should make an effort to compress it properly. Saxophonistic regards, even though it’s off-topic here.

@ Salmacis: you hit the nail on the head, that's very true, I believe that historicizing works is essential. @ Giona: no problem about what you call acidity, which instead serves me to learn in a field where I still have a long way to go. As for the distance, who knows... I'd gladly grab a beer with you and anyone else from Debaser. Thanks again to everyone, I really enjoyed this chat. Until next time, which I believe will be about "Missus Beastly" or "Third Ear Band" unless someone beats me to it. To the administrators: make sure that the 20,000th review is Prog, please!

But why is Naples so far from my home? I love Kraftwerk, both the experimental ones and the catchier ones. Radioactivity was the closing theme of my krautrock show on the free radios in my area. Bravo.

It is a great pleasure to "host" a discussion like this about my review. I would love to redo it and delve deeper over a nice pint of beer or a glass of wine with all of you present. @ Giona, I respond that as a good sparring partner, I have taken the blow with grace; you are absolutely right when you chastise me for not mentioning the title of the track—I'll remember that for next time, and I thank you. I appreciate everyone who has taken the time and effort to participate in this incredibly interesting discussion. It is true that prog is challenging for many, and it is also true that I tend to be swayed by the memories that certain records evoke. However, it is also true that I prefer to spend my time modestly trying to review an album that I already consider a good one from the outset; I wouldn't want to do the same for something that still doesn't appeal to me after a decade of listening. If I worked for a music magazine, I would have to review whatever comes out on the market, and finding "duds" would be easier; here, though, I have the good fortune to choose the record, and I do so with a smile on my lips and memories swirling around. The '70s were incredible, and prog truly was a major revolution for all of us. I take advantage of your patience to genuinely propose that we meet; I am from the province of Turin, and it would be wonderful if we could organize something. I conclude with thanks to everyone and wishes for a spectacular night.

@ Psychopompe: I didn't mention the Akarma reissue because I don't own it and, frankly, I haven't explored how many reissues of this album have been made, but knowing Akarma's philosophy in general, I have no doubt that they could have reissued it as well. @ OleEinar: The 5 stars come from the affection I feel for the album but also from its development, which, considering the year of release, seems very focused to me. I also have a long list of albums I would like to write about; it wouldn't be a bad idea to exchange these lists and share them so we can fill all the significant gaps on Debaser in this area. There would be a ton of great prog things from the Russian, Australian, Belgian, Czechoslovakian, etc. scenes that would be worth reviewing.
Best regards.
