LA RECENSIONE

Strange creature, this Ducoli. It was impossible to figure out where on earth he found the time to do everything he was doing during the period between 2000 and 2002 among the mountain community, the Bacco, the boozy nights, and the stress he put on a group of musicians by forcing them to play for him. Moreover, as soon as this CD came out, he had already written a bunch of songs for which he was about to record another one. Jokes aside, this is a CD, once again self-produced, that stands as one of his best works. Alessandro has now reached his fourth solo work, helped by some trusted friends including Arki Buelli on drums and Mario Stivala on guitars.

These are 11 stories told in the usual Ducolian manner about alcohol, sex, bad luck, and more. Musically, the album is more complete than the previous ones, with some shifts towards "decisive" rock (“Io ti sparerò per primo”, “Dieci metri sotto la città”), although the usual ballads with accordion are not missing (“Il primo ballo”, “Lulù”). "Tre linee confuse" is a reggae where the "confused lines" are those of the Valcamonica road described during the return from an evening of music and alcohol.
