The only album was released already in 1970. It is one of the first Italian progressive albums and therefore important. A few other Italian groups like NEW TROLLS and LE ORME had already released an album but perhaps this album by IL MUCCHIO can be regarded as the first truly progressive Italian album (?). It certainly is musically close to the more famous symphonic groups, which emerged soon after in the beginning of the seventies, and with keyboard work throughout the album. However, it does not contain long instrumental sections that are typical for the later symphonic groups.
IL MUCCHIO is an interesting group from the beginning of the Italian progressive movement.
