The album of beautiful little songs from Campovecchio (I know that "Le canzonette belle di Campovecchio" sounds like a compilation of popular tracks from an Italian village festival), where he demonstrates that he has found the definitive solution regarding writing pop songs that perform well in the charts without compromising his artistic dignity, as other
#illegalsongs did that same year, for example... The main example is "Moonlight Shadows," a practically perfect little song; pleasant, beautiful melody, "elegant" pace, the Oldfield mark is also felt here, I've always liked it and Reilly's voice (now a staunch supporter of Michele since '79-'80 more or less), quite lovely, is the extra touch, as on "Foreign Affair." I also appreciate Anderson's contribution, which bears good fruit, while the revival (what was Chappo doing in 1983? Does anyone know?) of Chapman on "Shadow of the Wall" has never convinced me, the piece is a bit of a kitsch. Obviously, the album has the same structure as the previous one, so it opens with the 20 minutes of the title track, very enjoyable, as always, but definitely less impactful than "Taurus II" on the previous album. On "Crises," it's the little songs that work best in my taste.
