One of the foremost Romanian bands of the Seventies, PROGRESIV TM were formed in Timisoara in 1972 with the name of Classic XX. The following year, after changing their name, they debuted in their home town, performing to great acclaim. By that time, Romania was in an dark age for artistic movement, because of the censorship from local communist regime. The line up for this album was from Harry Coradini - voice, Ladislau Herdina - guitar, voice, Ilie Stepan - bas, Hely Moszbrucker - drums, percussions, Mihai Farcas - drums, piano, percussion, Gheorghe Torz - flute. Their first album, "Dreptul de-a visa", was released in 1973. It features skillfully composed hard rock tunes with plenty of soaring melody and a strong emphasis on vocal harmonies, enhanced by flute interludes somewhat reminiscent of Italian band DELIRIUM. Four years later, after some changes in their line-up, PROGRESIV TM released their second album, "Puterea muzicii", which showed their sound had developed into a more elaborate direction. The presence of the piano and, occasionally, of strings, combined with the band's trademark ear for melody, as well as definitely better production values, make this album one of the best examples of Eastern European prog. Unfortunately, the group disbanded soon afterwards.
