For their second release not much have changed regarding Capricorn College's line-up,except the departure of flutist Guerrino Franchini and the arrival of saxophonist Antonio Balsamo. The band presented itself now under the title ''Barimar & Capricorn College'', where Barimar is the pseudonym of the band's keyboardist,main composer and arranger Mario Barigazzi. And seems like time went backwards for this act as, after the semi-progressive ''Orfeo 2000'', the new album contains mainly melodic Pop music split into 12 short tracks with sweet vocals,light piano and organs and occasional sax solos. The musicianship is quite versatile,however the band never escapes from the strict pop lines they set and only a few tracks contain.
