Foreigner | DeRank™: 0,00

Of the sacred "triad" of American AOR consisting of Foreigner, Toto, and Journey, they are the ones I prefer the most. Lou Gramm has a fantastic voice, and the others in their roles are not bad at all. Less gaudy than Journey (by AOR standards, of course...) and less cold and technical than Toto. For me, the ideal synthesis. more

John Varley | DeRank™: 0,00

A writer endowed with an extraordinary imagination. Some of his short stories are surprising. The novels "Hot Line Ophiucus," "Titan," and especially the masterpiece "The Steel Beach" are excellent. more

Only a mathematician, science communicator, and polyglot could have created a volume of such magnitude. A book containing many books. Unique and unrepeatable. more

Pooh | DeRank™: 1,07

All in all, important in the '70s, a handful of great albums and in between two masterpieces like Parsifal and Un po' del Nostro Tempo Migliore. After Buona Fortuna (and you could already feel the decline), they sank into the abyss of Italian song. 3.5 more

Fundamental. Both in progressive with masterpiece albums like Parsifal and in the pop field with Uomini soli. Underrated by many, overrated by a few. Ah, by the way, hi Stefano. more

Modà | DeRank™: 0,00

Perhaps overrated, but alongside One Direction, they are also one of the best bands of the 2000s. They have made songs that move you, make you dance, make you sing, make you laugh, help you flirt, and everything in between. Complete in every way. more

One Direction | DeRank™: 0,00

In the 70s we had the superlative Pink Floyd, in the 80s the scoldings but with affection Queen, in the 90s the salsa legends Oasis and the masterpiece Supersonic. And then there are them: how to blend prog with pop-punk-vaporwave with a splash of metal in the ballads. Midnight Memories is the best album of the last 15 years. Undeniable. more

Procol Harum — Pilgrim's Progress | DeRank™: 0,00

Pilgrim's Progress by Procol Harum

The song presents itself as a collection of subdued voices, like a perfect tangle of melancholic timbres capable of soothing the listener. The rhythm is spot on thanks to the presence of a mellotron that accompanies Gary Brooker's voice and Co. for all 4:33 minutes. It may not be Salty Dog... but it's truly deserving. The lyrics are fantastic with an existentialist essence. The final chorus, gradually fading out, is also well-placed.

Greenslade — Drowing Man | DeRank™: 0,00

Drowing Man by Greenslade
Song from the album "Greenslade"

This song offers the listener the chance to project themselves into the ultimate "Greenslade dimension." The first two minutes are a tribute to psychedelia. Dave Lawson kicks off the dance, accompanied by the evanescent notes of the mellotron and the calm, serene rhythm of Tony Reeves' bass. The atmosphere is undoubtedly sacred; it feels as if we're listening to an alien prayer, belonging to a civilization lost among the galaxies. It is a true psychedelic ritual with a melancholic twist. From the third minute onwards, the world will spin between the fingers of keyboardist Dave Greenslade and the skilled colleague Tony Reeves. Lush and picturesque virtuosity will guide us through the caves of introspection. Green caves, as depicted in Roger Dean's illustration printed on the vinyl cover. Drowing Man will conclude after 5:50 minutes of solemn and sacred spectacle, just as it began.

Greenslade-Drowning man
