Post Description

Studio Album, released in 1970, Italy.

Rock Progressivo Italiano.

The first album by Balletto had a different line-up from the one on the superb Ys. But Sirio 2222 is surely worth a listen and is a crucial work for the italian scene. What you can listen here is hard rock with a psichedelic flavour and reminescences of the "60 beat. But the classical influence on the track "Meditazione" represents the turning point towards the progressive world. The fans of Balletto won"t regretgiving a try to it. 
This release makes me feel definitevely happy! however inferior to "YS", it combines hard rock and prog with the well-known lyrics by that genius of Leone. it"s a pink floyd-like work, in which all musical tastes are satisfied, even the most progressive-driven audience, thanks to the presence of the monstrous title track suite. 

Voor de liefhebber.
