ALBUM REVIEW
Following the release of three masterpiece albums in their native country, this was their second (and sadly the last) UK release and it includes violinist Angelo Braduardi in the lineup, who was also responsible for the English language version of the lyrics. The album was released simultaneously in Italy (and with lyrics in Italian) under the title "Come In Un`Ultima Cena" and in UK under this title. This is a concept album with the "Last Supper" as it center theme, which raised a certain level of controversy at the time. This is classic stuff, well known to most serious Prog fans, so there is no need to say much more, except for the fact that this album is often considered as the band's best work. The English accent, often ridiculed by some of the less polite critics, has a charm in itself for me. A classic! (Jazzis - Rate Your Music)
