Florentine group tied to the obscure Italian prog scene of the 1970s. Their concept work centers on a protagonist confronting civilisation's ills; instrumentation includes Hammond, Leslie and guitars. The band recorded a first album in 1972 and returned with material presented in a 1973-style production.

Their 1970s-era debut was made available by Black Widow in 2011. The album '2973 – MMCMLXXIII – La nemica dei ricordi' features guest Elisa Montaldo (Tempio delle Clessidre) and Stefano Corsi (Whisky Trail). The group's name appears as 'Spettri' (The Spectres) and members include the Ponticiello brothers (mentioned in the review).

A Florentine group tied to the obscure Italian prog scene of the 1970s. The review praises the 1973-sounding album '2973 – MMCMLXXIII – La nemica dei ricordi' for its vintage instrumentation and guest appearances. Overall an appreciative, nostalgic take on a deliberate retro effort.

For:Fans of 1970s progressive rock, collectors of Italian prog relics, listeners of Hammond-driven vintage-sounding heavy/prog hybrids.

 The Spectres return from the mists of mythical times, one of the many groups that were part of the obscure Italian prog scene of the '70s.
