Longtime Italian superstar Franco Battiato developed from a prog-psych singer/songwriter of the early '70s
to one of the biggest pop stars in Europe, even as he pursued his recording interests in a variety of genres.
Born in 1945 in the village of Jonio, Battiato's initial stabs into musical work in the 1960s didn't go anywhere
beyond a single or two, leaving his first real break to occur in the early '70s when he began recording a series
of albums for the underground label Bla Bla. Starting with Fetus in 1971 and concluding
with L'Egitto Prima Delle Sabbie (Egypt Before the Sands) in 1978, he staked out his
own claim in the high-ferment world of Italian prog rock. Musically accomplished
if sometimes poorly recorded, and unafraid to indulge in more than a little whimsy, these records
covered the gamut from extreme experimentalism to more song-focused efforts,
the two most notable of which would be 1972's Pollution and 1973's Sulle Corde Di Aries (On the Ropes of Aries).
