Quella Vecchia Locanda - Quella Vecchia Locanda. CD. (Vinyl Magic - VM 54) CD issue of this Italian band's classic debut 1972 album. A bold attempt to combine early 70s English-style progressive rock with classical music, this album succeeds where many others failed. A huge band fronted by keyboard wizard Massimo Roselli, QVL were unafraid to include wild acid guitar breaks together with the Vivaldian complexity of the music

Quella Vecchia Locanda - Il Tempo Della Gioia. CD. (Si Wan - SRMC 1001) Known in their native Italy as QVL, this was the bands' second album recorded in 1974. The moogs and mellotrons are much in evidence, but this particular release benefits as much from jazz and classical influences as much as progressive rock and combines a dynamism and energy that compels and fascinates - even in a foreign language.
