    (Alex) Masi has one album out, titled "Masi".  I'm sure you can
    get it on disk.

    Yeah, Masi was on Headbangers ball last Saturday, so I'm sure you
    can check them out then.  I was wondering who they were, thanks
    Buck!

    	"God Promised a Paradise" or something like that, wasn't it?!
         I could be wrong.  I do more fastforwarding than actual
    	playing, but I remember liking the song that Masi did
    
    	Sorry I can't help more!!

    This may be too late but:
      
    PFM (Premiata Forneria Marconi):
      Discography:   Photos of Ghosts
                    The World Became the World
                    Chocolate Kings
                    Cook (Live)
    
     These guys were actually part of the classic rock movement in the
    70's.
    The only heavy rock from Italy I know of is a group called Goblin.
    Hope this helps...
