A Classic Education Amongst four blazing nights between Xmas 2006 and the year of 2007, A Classic Education recorded 3 songs in the middle of the mountains of centre-north Italy.

Most off all this was done at night, wind blowing and dogs outside barking away. For one short moment "The Blazing World" is what glued everything together...a second later it was just A Classic Education.
