"Play play," "It can be done," and "Voice Master" are all three convincing. The best tracks with Franz Di Cioccio on vocals might be the presence of Flavio Premoli. more
In the end, after careful listening, I've come to the conclusion that these guys don't tell me shit. I like the first and the last with Fish, and I consider Brave a great album; the rest oscillates between being pleasant (like the first one without Fish) and mediocre. Ah, Misplaced Childhood is decent but leaves me as cold as an icebox and eventually bores me terribly. more
He's made some nice films, but I've never been able to love them, these nice films. The exception is Carlito's Way. more
The shit. more
Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuaaaaaaaaiiiiemsiei more
At least 4 very, very beautiful albums. more
It’s not difficult to define Guccini as an Americanist, given the omnipresent Dylan influence, especially in the early periods of his career. Yet, this does not prevent him from valuing the high musicality of the Italian language, with lyrics worthy of mention in literature textbooks. "Incontro" marks the history of Italian music. more
Return to the blues roots with incredible elegance and flexibility, offered by the award-winning company Kaukonen-Casady. more
Incredibly rural atmospheres, blending with vocal harmonies worthy of the leading bands of the Sixties pop. Obvious influences include Neil Young, Bert Jansch, and Bob Dylan, with a touch of psychedelia reminiscent of the Incredible String Band; one of the most valid groups of the moment. more
One of the darkest and lesser-known productions of Young's career, marked by strong melancholy and anguish, although less exasperating compared to the later "Tonight's The Night." Once again, a masterful blend of raw rock and rural folk, as only Neil Young knows how to do. more
His intention was to create an LP in the vein of the Everly Brothers and Roy Orbison; the final product is a country folk that is rural at times and melodic at others, for an album that, in its own way, has marked the history of music. more
Successfully imports folk in the style of Leonard Cohen to Italian soil, adding an intimate touch with a distinctly melancholic flavor. "Bene," one of the most dazzling yet lesser-known gems of the Italian singer-songwriter scene. more
a large group that has managed to reinvent itself, to put itself on the line without compromising. Anyway, for me, Primal Scream are these. Primal Scream-Velocity Girl  more
strange group. Started as one of many danceable post-punk bands, marked by an inevitable disappearance, with their third work "Field of Reeds" they made a miraculous leap in quality, recording a masterpiece that shines with its own light, unclassifiable. It closely reminds me of the shift in gear of Talk Talk. These New Puritans - Field of Reeds  more
energetic pieces condensed, somewhere between post-punk and the tight rhythms of Fugazi and similar bands. Their latest works seek new avenues of rapid guitar-driven new wave, but in my opinion, with not-so-exciting results, distorting the group's identity. YouTube more
FOUR TET IS NOT BURIAL more
The most eclectic side of the Summer of Love. A masterful blend of psychedelia, folk, and flamenco with goosebump-inducing orchestral arrangements. more
It exudes genuine insecurity. more
From America comes the folk rock of the Byrds and Dylan's Highway 61. The Beatles will capture its essence without compromising their songwriting. more
A little gem from the Sixties folk scene. Bleecker Street and the ever-present The Sound Of Silence (here in a bare yet much more effective acoustic version) remain timeless masterpieces. more
