We all know there's no more international rock genre than prog. Let's see some of the best fruits around the world. Being Italian, better start with a French one! This track perfectly illustrates Ange's theatrical and unpredictable style: folk-oriented lyrics, a vocal performance somewhere between singing and acting, long instrumental passages, a bit of Middle Ages and a good balance of acoustic and electric intruments.
"Emile Jacotey" album's cover.
This song is taken from a fascinating concept album, Émile Jacotey, inspired by an old farmer's traditional tales, so you'll find there fairies, princes, soil festivities, humble men and women, animals and freaks. Ange are a world apart, a strange place to explore, but even so they're the prog itself.
