Il Balletto di Bronzo
📀 Ys
#ProgressiveRock #RPI

50 years ago Il Balletto di Bronzo from Naples, #Italy released their 2nd and final studio album entitled Ys.
The album, as often happened in those years for Italian Progressive Rock underground bands, had poor consideration and sales and IBdB disbanded soon.
And as often happened Ys was rediscovered and appreciated many years later like the entire RPI scene.

Ys, sang in Italian language, is a concept album about the last man left on Earth, who makes a hallucinating journey split in 3 encounters, before tragically disappearing in the dark, as happened to the mythological island of Ys swallowed by the waters.

#IlBallettodiBronzo in this album were:
Gianni Leone - vocals, synthetizes, keyboards
Lino Ajello - guitar
Vito Manzari - bass
Gianchi Stinga - drums
A female choir member was Giusy Romeo, in the 80s she became a famous pop singer in Italy, under the name of #GiuniRusso.
