Ligabue — Miss Mondo | DeRankā„¢: 0,00

A somewhat morbid work, with too many ballads and a few rock "surges," but it's one of his most sincere albums, in which midfielder Liga tells about himself without beating around the bush. Some things are truly beautiful, many others are just "garnish." more

Luciano Ligabue — Fuori come va? | DeRankā„¢: 3,00

Unexpectedly, after an unforeseen misstep, here he is once again showing off a form that is at times convincing. "Nato per me" is a rock track that leaves its mark, as does "Ti sento," a sentimental ballad. What falters are the singles, hits that are catchy (too catchy) and easy to latch onto. more

Luciano Ligabue — Arrivederci, mostro! | DeRankā„¢: 0,00

All the worst of the Rustici sound (empty and plastic) added to a total lack of ideas: at times it's pretentious ("Quando mi vieni a prendere?"), at times it's rhetorical ("Caro il mio Francesco"). But it's his best-selling album, amen. idee: more

Vasco Rossi — Canzoni Per Me | DeRankā„¢: 3,00

Vasco, having shed the guise of the anarchic rocker from the mid-'80s, is (by now) a serene gentleman, satisfied and "intoxicated" by his newfound family happiness. His songs reflect this, sometimes predictable ("Io no"), sometimes "paracule" ("Quanti anni hai"). The delicate "Laura" is spared, but thereā€™s little substance otherwise. more

Ligabue — Nome E Cognome | DeRankā„¢: 0,00

After three years of hibernation, Ligabue is back in the game, and he does so with an album featuring a less fluid sound (produced by Corrado Rustici), followed by the legendary first crowd bath at CampoVolo. However, he doesnā€™t seem all that eager to keep making music, but he sells in droves. more

Luciano Ligabue — Primo tempo | DeRankā„¢: 0,00

First of two substantial greatest hits released between 2007 and 2008. This one covers Liga's first 5 albums and therefore, inevitably, is the better of the two since it contains his most beautiful songs. Two unreleased tracks of not negligible value (the excellent "Buonanotte allā€™Italia"; the other unreleased track is "Niente paura"). more

Luchino Visconti | DeRankā„¢: 0,00

Like it or not, Visconti remains one of the greatest film and theater directors, despite always being unjustly disparaged. more

Irene Grandi — Irek | DeRankā„¢: 0,00

First anthology by the Tuscan artist, featuring 2 "revisited" songs and 2 unreleased tracks (one is the ghost track). For those who are easily satisfied, a pleasant pastime; for others, you can move on. more

Negramaro — San Siro 2008 | DeRankā„¢: 0,00

A decent live album, albeit concise (there are, out of a total of 64', 4 unreleased tracks and 2 bonus tracks), marking the peak of popularity for the Salento band. Nothing special (it's rather monotonous pop-rock), but all in all listenable. more

Samuele Bersani — Freak | DeRankā„¢: 0,00

Honey candies and silly nursery rhymes, but there's also the semi-rock of "Cosa vuoi da me" and some little pearls of poetry ("Piccolo macellaio"; "Barcarola albanese"). It's the album of consecration. more

Ettore — Scola | DeRankā„¢: 0,00

A wonderful film for its atmosphere and cinematography, enhanced by the performances of Loren and Mastroianni. On a national holiday that empties the city (the 1938 meeting in Rome between Il Duce and Hitler), two neighbors happen to meet by chance. Their loneliness, for different reasons, comes together for a few unforgettable hours. I had never seen it before. more

Antonello Venditti — Dalla pelle al cuore | DeRankā„¢: 3,00

A nice album, surprisingly, given the rather discouraging trials of previous works. Dedicated to the parents, there are very beautiful pieces, from the melancholic "Piove su Roma" where Gato Barbieri's sax returns to the profound "Tradimento e perdono." The inconceivable "Comunisti al sole" stands out as an exception, which is truly something to report (musically, of course). more

Antonello Venditti — Dalla pelle al cuore | DeRankā„¢: 3,00

The best of Venditti from the last twenty years is all, or nearly all, contained within this albumā€”at times exquisitely refinedā€”in which he blends popular romanticism ("Piove su Roma") with memories of timeless figures like Di Bartolomei and Pantani. more

Andrej Tarkovskij — Stalker | DeRankā„¢: 0,00

An astonishing film. Science fiction without special effects or spaceships. A slow camera used like a scalpel for a spiritual and metaphysical pilgrimage disguised as post-apocalyptic cinema. more

the only one who, when announcing his retirement, did so without any commercial backtracking: if we add a consistently high-quality output, he rightfully deserves a place at the top ranks of Italian singer-songwriters commerciale: more

Vasco Rossi | DeRankā„¢: 0,00

That it was, first and foremost, a company became clear when, for obvious commercial reasons, the title of what is actually one of his best albums, Non siamo mica gli americani, was changed to Albachiara. And as a company, throughout his entire career, he fully did his duty, providing jobs and generating a lot of money. more

One of the 5 most beautiful albums by this fantastic singer! My favorite, however, remains "Spirit in the dark", closely followed by "Lady soul".
Then there are also the gospel albums, two above all: "One Lord, one faith, one baptism" and the wonderful "Amazing Grace". tutti: more
