Profondità - Alchimia ('71, Italy)

https://www.facebook.com/prognotfrog Sprawling instrumental double LP by a talented Italian composer. In fact, I would say that this album sort of bridges the gap between library music and full-blown symphonic prog. The most striking bit, though, is that at one point "Profondita" sounds EXACTLY like Pink Floyd's "Shine On You Crazy Diamond", just four years earlier! Remember that old story about some Bulgarian guy trying to sue Michael Jackson for plagiarism? If I were Paolo Ferrara, I'd sure try to wheedle a few pounds out of Roger Waters!

Fake of course. Not a 1971 issue :))

@BronDune if you know any information feel free to share. Since there is no proof of evidence neither on lp nor on vinyl cover, the best guess is this album were made before mid 70s. all i have to tell this date didnt choose ordinary.. you can contact BTF/Vinyl Magic records that works for a reissue of the album.

Which is exactly the same time?

@nahavanda Do you really think to Gilmour or Waters using this one during 3 or 4 years without any credits to Paolo Ferrara ?? Or Paolo Ferrara composed this double LP and never went to the courts to have his money back for author rights ??

As soon as the statement, curiously lacking in the things of value. We believe to be plunged to the bottom of the abyss, and when we return to the surface of the water drop on the pale tips of our fingers no longer resembles the sea from which it comes. We delude ourselves to have found wonderful treasures in a cave, and when we return in daylight that did not report false stones and broken glass, and yet, the treasure in the darkness Shine unchanged.
