Biography
The Capitolo 6 is a progressive rock italian band. The band was born in 1969 from the fusion of Gli Eremiti from Viareggio and I Rangersi from Livorno.

The group participated to few italian rock festivals in the early seventies, obtaining a record deal with IT dischi. They based themselves in Rome and published an album, frutti per kagua, with a very progressive and brillant one-track first side, and a quite different side B, with 3 tracks which lyrics were written by Francesco de gregori, a then-famous italian singer. After publishing another couple of singles, the band disappeared in 1975.
