Mirageman

Hiding behind the Mirageman name was in fact pianist and composer Giovanni Fenati, who released a series of five (but some sources mention a sixth title) library albums between 1969 and 1972 on the Ariston label. At least four known singles were taken from these albums. Most of this keyboard-led instrumental production has little connection with progressive music, as demonstrated by the album titles, Per voi giovani and Alto gradimento were popular radio programs, and the albums were more in the easy listening/lounge music style.

Premiata Forneria Marconi

Premiata Forneria Marconi (PFM) is an Italian progressive rock band that achieved a high level of popularity in the 1970s, with success in both the British and American charts. While they had many Italian contemporaries, such as Banco del Mutuo Soccorso, Area, Perigeo, and Le Orme, they were the only Italian band of their genre to become highly successful outside of their home country. Their music shows influence from Genesis and early King Crimson, but they still manage to maintain a high level of originality and a distinct, warm Mediterranean sound.
