(IN MY HUMBLE OPINION) THIS IS ONE AMONG THE BEST ITALIAN PROG SINGLES... HOWEVER IT IS NOT IN A GREAT SHAPE, THE COVER IS IN VG CONDITION AND IS ACCEPTABLE BUT THE RECORD HAS BEEN PLAYED MANY TIMES AND HAS A LOT OF BACKGROUND NOISE, BUT NO SKIPS OR JUMPS... LISTED ONLY BECAUSE OF ITS INCREDIBLE RARITY AND WITH A LOW STARTING PRICE...

FROM WWW.ITALIANPROG.COM:

"Reale Accademia di Musica derived from a very popular band from Rome, I Fholks, that in their career also supported Pink Floyd and Jimi Hendrix (both in 1968 in Rome), but just managed to release a single.
The origins of this group lay in a beat band, i Condors, formed in 1965 and featuring guitarist Claudio Baldassarri and bassist Pierfranco Pavone, later renamed Folks to play as backing band of singer Roby Crispiano. The name was changed again to Fholks after the entrance of singer Henryk Topel and drummer Ruggero Stefani, and it was this line-up that played those two important concerts.

With new guitarist Pericle Sponzilli (replacing Baldassarri, who went to form Crisalide) and keyboardist Enzo Volpini, Fholks recorded their only record. The good single included a reworking of an Iron Butterfly song, Soldier in our town, translated as Mi scorri nelle vene, and was produced by Equipe 84 leader Maurizio Vandelli, that brought the group to the Ricordi label.
After the entrance of keyboardist Federico Troiani the quintet had its most stable line-up, and played in many important festivals of the early 70's, like Caracalla and Gualdo in 1970 and the Viareggio Pop Festival in 1971, but split during the recording sessions for their first English-sung album.

While drummer Ruggero Stefani (previously he had been the only man in the all-girl beat group Le Pupille) joined L'Uovo di Colombo, that also included his ex cohort Enzo Volpini, the others formed Reale Accademia di Musica, but guitarist Pericle Sponzilli left soon after the recording sessions of their LP, being replaced by Nicola Agrimi (from Le Esperienze and early Banco del Mutuo Soccorso)".

VG/VG= MOLTO BUONO (disco abbastanza usato con qualche disturbo, copertina con piccoli difetti)

G/G= buono (disco molto usato con disturbi marcati, copertina usurata e/o macchie e/o scritte e/o parti mancanti: di solito si tratta di un disco messo comunque in vendita in considerazione della sua rarità e con un prezzo di partenza molto basso)

Visual grading: records are not listened to. Please feel free to ask for any question.

MINT (M/M): MINT and SEALED (S/S)

EXCELLENT (EX/EX): The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

VERY GOOD (VG/VG): The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD (G/G): The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc. The item is listed only because of its rarity at a very low starting price.

+ or - indicates a grading in between categories
