Hi! I'm an Italian boy of 18 years old and sometimes I hear this fantastic radio (radio? what I say? It's much more!!!). Now, for example, I'm listening to a Saga song, a band never heard before, and this is fantastic, how many bands or artists I know thanks to Aural Moon!
I've seen that you have put many songs of some great Italian bands of the Prog era... Here, they are forgotten (sigh!); I'm glad that someone still remember them; I am fond of these bands, especially PFM, Area, Le Orme.... in the 70's in my country there were a lot of these bands that were not only inspired by English Prog, but also they were original in their way of singing, or in relation to some style of melodies (an example for all: Impressioni di Settembre by PFM).
Now, thanks to you, I have the wonderful opportunity to hear all these bands, especially the ones very very unknown nowadays: Osanna, Banco, Quella Vecchia Locanda, and so on...
Thanks for living!!!
Another thing!! I'm the one who select Area songs, on the air in a while now after this di Meola's song; Area is a fantastic band, I am crazy when I listen to the words of Luglio, Agosto, Settembre (nero), their most known track. In their lyrics there is some rebellion against Italian government and society of 70's, politics, etc. I would like to understand better on this fact.... One day I'll return here to write their story, the one of their leader Demetrio Stratos, and their relationship to Italian society. Ehy! Area is on the air now! Le Labbra del Tempo from their first album Arbeit Macht Frei. Cheers!!! Bye!
(Is my English good, fellas?)
