Read "A Modest Proposal" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


A Modest Proposal, il primo album in tre anni per la band di New York, sembra, data la freschezza delle composizioni, la messa su nastro di una intensa attività dal vivo, dimensione storicamente importante per la maggior parte dei musicisti della Grande Mela.
