Bob Dylan quickly notices the sublime guitar artistry of Mark Knopfler; "Slow Train Coming" represents the first successful collaboration between the minstrel from Duluth and the leader of Dire Straits, which will culminate a few years later in "Infidels". Elegant tracks that move in the realms of rock-blues, with hints of gospel in some songs; with the peak, in my opinion, reached in "I Believe In You", where Mark's languid guitar weaves phrases of certain effectiveness. more

According to IZO, the good Dale absolutely does not do Surf. As for lyrics, don’t even mention them; pop…nothing…rock n roll? Very little, a lot of Middle Eastern influences…so what genre does he play?
(surf=pop+rock n roll + beach lyrics) quote from IZO. more
according to the IZO equation, along with the legendary and UNIQUE Beach Boys, the one and only true representative of our local Surf music.
surf = rock n roll + pop + beach lyrics.

great interpreter of our local surf music, according to IZO, his carefree lyrics, but also cheerful, lively, optimistic, laid-back, teenage, are a distinctive feature of beach music. more
It's 1985: Dire Straits reach the milestone of their fifth studio album, and it's the classic work that represents the completion of the circle. An almost unparalleled record in terms of sound perfection, achieved with nine songs that experience not even the slightest drop in tone; from the booming rock of "Money For Nothing," featuring a vocal cameo by Sting, to the country of "The Man's Too Strong," which has a remarkable acoustic opening, all the way to the concluding and bittersweet "Brothers In Arms." more
They were among the most valid exponents of Death Metal, being some of the very first to define its dictates and musical patterns. With their unique characteristic of listing their released albums in alphabetical order; for this reason, I consider them flawless up to the letter "E" ... then a continuous decline into irrelevance, with the last studio work at times embarrassing for me. more
The guys, no longer boys in terms of age, have been presenting me with authentic masterpieces in Music for over thirty years, reaching a personal peak with the album "Ultra" in 1997. Dave, Martin, and Andrew, you are my "Personal Jesus." more
I can't find the right words to describe it; among so many masterpieces, even just "Cortez The Killer," "Rocking In The Free World," and "Down By the River" would be enough to annihilate entire discographies. more
Well, live they were already "them," but in the studio their only proof still seems bland and immature. Anyway, 1979, the debut of people who will make history: Nick Cave, Rowland S. Howard, Mick Harvey, Tracy Pew, Phil Calvert (and Anita Lane...). It will be enough to wait for 1980 and a name change, and the mad genius of Howard and Cave will face no more obstacles. From Australia with fury. more
According to Izo, they are among the foremost bastions of traditional Surf Rock. Armed with their Fender Jaguars, in their free time they head to the nearest Surfer Joe's Diner where they showcase their mastery by launching into jaw-dropping performances. 5 for the beach themes of Borneo typical of the most chaste and pure Surf Rock. more
Masterpiece. For Yes, the third in a row, probably the greatest, definitely the last. I wanted to say a few words about Bill Bruford, the sharpest in the group: realizing that after this grand album Yes could only go down (they went down too far, though...) he joined the newly reborn and completely revolutionized (in line-up and style) phoenix of Robert Fripp, leveling up and becoming a cornerstone of all the band's incarnations up until the '90s, not stupid at all. more

The "true" essence of the Dead. An exceptional live album, cosmic, hallucinatory, immense. Just the presence of Dark Star would justify its purchase. Released by the band primarily to pay off debts after they spent a fortune on recording studios. Then Hart's father, their manager, also got involved, disappearing with the money... more
