I Cancelli della Memoria – Tributo anni ’70 a Franco Battiato
The celebrated tribute concert to Franco Battiato by I Cancelli della Memoria, that took place at the Teatro Dante in Castellanza on November 26th 2010, is now available on CD and DVD. The title of the album is Tributo anni ’70 a Franco Battiato (Btf – AMS AMSCD235, 2015)

I Cancelli della Memoria includes musicians who participated in the early progressive rock historical works of Franco Battiato: Gianfranco D’Adda and Mario Dalla Stella, as well as newcomers such as Paolo “Ske” Botta (Yugen, Not a good sign), Mauro Galbersanini, Roberta Pagani and Carlo Cilibrasi.

The concert includes tracks from the albums Fetus, nearly all of Pollution and Sulle Corde di Aries, and a song from “Clic”, the album from which the band takes its name.

The lineup reflects the original structure of the songs and provides the vintage sounds, including the same Arp Odyssey 2600/eco Binson Echorec of the 1973 tour.

The box-set contains a folded poster (23x35cm) with the flyer of Battiato’s Pollution concert held in Bologna in Piazza S. Stefano in 1972, and contains both CD and DVD versions of Cancelli della Memoria’s concert (75 minutes).

The video segment also includes a 40-minute bonus with interviews with some of the protagonists of the 1970s era.
