 The Pagan Aversion to Organization: Benefit or Detriment by Morgan Ravenwood
Recently in a Pagan-themed message board I belong to, the issue of organization as it pertains to the Pagan community arose and very quickly developed into a hotly debated topic that I've since encountered in other online groups.
All the too-frequent infighting is nothing but a detriment to the Pagan community, and the sooner some are able to see this, the sooner we can begin to work on bigger issues like gaining recognition and acceptance among the mainstream faiths through education (or, as I call it, "fear abatement and prevention").
This is vital to our being able to continue practicing our religion openly and without the real or perceived threat of persecution.

In summary, Per Un Amico and L'Isola Di Niente as well as their first, Storia Di Un Minuto are all virtual classics of progressive music, obviously influenced by early King Crimson and Genesis yet sounding nothing like them.
The instrumentation is superb with fluid guitar, highly original synthesizer sounds (at a time when innovation was at its prime), beautiful violin and flute, and ethereal vocals that are so important to the music, that replacing them with English vocals becomes a detriment.
Subsequent albums saw a change in style (mainly for the worse), although Live In The USA aka "Cook," and "Chocolate Kings" are worth a listen.
