Notes: Previously an instrumental project, Beaten Paths Different Ways, the fourth Rome Pro(G)ject album, adds vocals for the first time. The first three tracks are new, but the remainder are re-worked, some adding singing. Earlier versions of (8) and (9) were on Of Fate and Glory. (8) was a mere 3:53 previously and has been considerably expanded here, while (9) has been cut down from its previous 6:00 running time.

As well as big prog names from the Anglophone world, like the Hackett family, Cross and Jackson, the album also has some stars from the Italian prog scene. Lanzetti was in Premiata Forneria Marconi (PFM). Di Giacomo was in Banco. (HP, 28 Nov 20)
