Trombe di Falloppio
The Fallopian Tubes, also known as salpinges (from the Greek σαλπίγξ meaning trumpet, tuba, alluding to their shape), uterine tubes, or oviducts, are two equal and symmetrical tubular organs that connect the ovary to the uterine cavity. The Tubes are named after their discoverer Gabriele Falloppio (Modena, around 1523 – Padua, October 9, 1562), a significant anatomist, botanist, physician, and naturalist active in Padua and the author of the weighty anatomical work "Observationes anatomicae," published in Venice in 1561 by the renowned printer Aldo Manuzio; as well as other important works for the development of the Padua anatomophysiological school such as "Secreti diversi et miracolosi ne' quali si mostra la via facile di risanare le infirmità del corpo humano," "De medicatis aquis atque de fossilibus," "De morbo gallico," and "De ulceribus," all published in Venice by the same publisher. more

R.E.M. -Murmur
Murmur is a truly memorable debut album (previous EP aside) and despite a career rich in great records at least up until 1996, it ultimately stands at least on some step of the podium of their best works. Which step I cannot ascertain nor am I particularly interested in determining precisely, but it's a beautiful record. They are children of the Byrds and Jingle-Jangle, updating that sound for the '80s by filtering it through New Wave, focusing on those wonderful acoustic guitar frameworks that dominate and support the entire album, and managing to develop an excellent personal style, entirely their own, especially in the melodies that, starting from this album, become a trademark that has made them one of the most immediately recognizable bands ever. On "Murmur," all the songs, the melodies, Stipe's vocal harmonies, the guitar arpeggios create a wonderfully delicate Janglism from Buck and the others, whispered (indeed), played on tiptoe, almost as if they never wanted to disturb the listener too much. Even in the slightly more upbeat tracks, there’s this feeling. There are only beautiful songs here, particularly phenomenal are "Pilgrimage," the sublime melody of "Perfect Circle," the jangle manifesto "Shaking Through," and also the more "nervous" "Sitting Still" and another phenomenal pop-jangle like "Talk About the Passion," but everyone will have their favorites. more

Well like Faust'O and like Fausto Rossi. Alongside Garbo, the best of the new wave, and under his real name, the best of the niche alongside Flavio Giurato. more

Deep Purple -Machine Head
Here for me are two masterpieces: "Lazy" above all, where even just the electric shock in the intro of Lord's Hammond makes the whole album worth it, and it's generally a great display of the band's talent. Then there's "Space Truckin'," another of their impeccable and immensely fun hard rock tracks, spiced up by the vocal screams of the original Jesus Christ Superstar. As for the rest, I still like it less than various other albums of theirs; somehow, despite being beautiful, I find it flatter and less imaginative than their other records (from Mark II or I or III). Oh, don't get me wrong, it's their greatest collection of evergreens, right? (from Highway to Smoke, which may have become overexposed but was and remains a great rock song) and there are also some so-called minor songs that I appreciate quite a bit ("Pictures of Home"), but in my taste, it doesn't hold up to the two previous ones, sticking to the lineup with Gillan. Here they also focus on the classic ballad with "When a Blind Man Cries" (which was missing, for example, on "Fireball," which wasn't lacking in moments of splendid melodic lyricism), which is the best example of my overall consideration of the album: it's beautiful, seriously, a beautiful song, but it lacks that spark, that glimmer, that something, to make me truly love it, which it isn't. more

Deep Purple -Fireball
One of my favorite Purple albums, let's say a wooden medal, immediately after the podium. There's stylistic variability and plenty of imagination, along with shivers from melodic inspiration. Two masterpieces, however: the title track, which stands among their perfect hard rock, and "Fools," which is one of the best songs that Nerodipiù, Lord, Glover, and the gang have ever composed, wonderfully varied, with those beautiful "stop and go" moments, the hard-rock-blues structure of the vocal part, the delicate intro, and the central solo by Blacky (one of the most beautiful and evocative in his repertoire, with great melodic sweetness, almost sacred in tone, or between the sacred and the ancient minstrel-electric, but we know that Blacky is fixated on certain things), simply stunning. For the rest, the average quality of the tracks makes me prefer it to the next one, in addition to the greater variety (the slightly exotic-psych atmospheres of the beautiful "The Mule," and may Lord be blessed, the classic rock-blues but with a slower-melodic insert by Nerodipiù in "No No No," and even "Anyone's Daughter," another experiment far from the main coordinates of Marco Due, but which I consider a delightful diversion). Truly a great album, the only thing that sucks here is the cover... more

The acoustic (and folk) side of the Tortoise. Pleasant, but not essential. more
Styx
They compose catchy and straightforward tracks in a clear AOR style but distinguish themselves from their peers by enriching them with solutions of clear progressive origin, the latter being so massively present that they almost challenge their status as an AOR band; they appeal to both factions, pleasing true rockers as well as proggers. more

genesis -archive #2 1976-1992
Stuff for super-obsessive, ultra-completist Genesis maniacs. In the first disc, amidst tracks that I couldn't care less about and a few obvious aggressive garbage (the utterly detestable "Peiperleitdemmerda"), there are, however, some interesting gems, most of which provoke heavy swearing for not being included in those damn albums that, without some excess nonsense, could have been at least decent records... Visible Shit foremost. Imagine that disgrace of an album with a couple of its songs cut out and with "Feeding the Fire" and "Do the Neurotic" in it, especially the latter, a good instrumental, incredibly PLAYED (considering they barely even bothered with that), fun, engaging, damn it, but even back in '86 they recorded decent music (not that they're masterpieces, but they’re pretty nice). Also interesting are the "Naminamu/Submarine" which should have formed a suite with "Dodo/Lurker" on Abbacabbo. In the second disc, various live tracks of massively schizophrenic quality (ranging from a gem like "Ripples" to the infamous queen of #illegalsongs), making it entirely pointless (there are other live/bootleg recordings that contain the same songs). In the third, more useless live tracks and at least another nice gem: "Open Door" by Rutherford, from the 1980 sessions, one of his best songs, when his melodicism was sweet without crossing into the overly sappy. more
