Description: | For the very first time on a Vinyl album an incredible and historical document from the Italian Progressive Rock scene of the early 70s by a six-piece band from Savona â??Il Giro Stranoâ??. The band was formed by young musicians active in Liguria during the the 60s and 70s previously members of locally established bands such as: One Way, Voodoo, Tramps and others. In those days, the band had no chance of releasing any album, however, they left various tape recordings on reels and audio cassettes, preserving a musical heritage of great historical and artistic value. Led by the powerful voice of Mirko Ostinet and featuring great sax and keyboard playing skills, il Giro Strano created a remarkably original style of Italian progressive rock music with jazz nuances, reminiscent of bands such as Flea, Rockyâ??s Filj, Procession, Ibis, New Trolls. All tracks have been digitized, equalized and mastered in order to obtain the best possible sound quality.They will be available as Double Vinyl with a fold-out cover with an original â??72 artwork by Armando Mancini, remarkable former Up & Down Studio artist, well known in the golden progressive rock era, for creating artwork for bands such as Quella Vecchia Locanda, Trip, Il Rovescio della Medaglia and many more. The album is a real treasure not to be missed. - Reissue of [m1624903] (1992) + 6 additional tracks.
Packaged in a standard jewel case with clear tray, 24-page booklet and download card for 2 bonus tracks ('Il Calvario' & 'Since I've Been Loving You') in a resealable clear plastic sleeve."Il Pianeta Della Verità" is a rare and highly sought-after progressive rock album by the Italian band Il Giro Strano, now available in CD format.

The music blends intricate keyboard passages, dynamic guitar work, and expressive vocals to create an atmospheric journey that captures the spirit of early '70s progressive rock.
