In September 1968, Dodi Battaglia joined the group.

In the winter of 1971, following Valerio's departure, the band recruited Stefano D'Orazio, the drummer of the Naufraghi. The definitive line-up of the band came in 1972, when Riccardo Fogli left the group and went solo during the "Alessandra Tour" and was replaced by Red Canzian, a young progressive rock guitarist, who quickly learned to play the bass, and became an official member of the group. Another unexpected and radical change occurs in 2009. Drummer Stefano D'Orazio, announces the intention to leave the band after the summer tour, in September 2009 and in 2010 was replaced by English drummer Steve Ferrone. The band remains a trio.
