Italian Progressive Rock
Trip (The) - The Trip (RCA, PSL 10460 (1970)

On their eponymous first album,  The Trip almost sounded like a cross between  Vanilla Fudge,  The Nice and  Quatermass (another group that had a great deal of influence on the early Italian rock scene; they released their only album in 1970). "Prologo" almost pastiched the organ work of Mark Stein on  Vanilla Fudge's first album.
Other enlightening features were Billy Gray's Blackmoresque guitar parts and Joe Vescovi's distinctive, high-pitched voice. The album showed great promise, but didn't quite succeed in creating an integrated group sound. Organ parts of great emotional intensity were sometimes followed by almost banal vocal arrangements in a more pop tradition.
