Mother of God, what is this thing?! To think that I actually liked it in high school, a formless lump of singer-songwriter rock. I only save the title track and Dillo alla luna; the rest is something obscene starting from Domenica lunatica all the way to the apotheosis of Vivere senza te. Really a terrible album. more

I stopped buying his music since the embarrassing Leather Jackets... The Elton that really matters is the one from 1969 to 1975... Period. (Although maybe, in the last 15 years of his career, he has made a bit of a comeback, to be honest...) more

...He did remarkable things, at least until 1984 as far as I'm concerned, he deserves to be considered among the greatest, truly among the top five. Then, along with his hair, his creative vein also "grayed," publishing some quite embarrassing stuff, but the masterpieces of the early phase of his career (Bella Mbriana above all) should not be forgotten, on the contrary... more

Ivano Fossati -La Disciplina Della Terra
Martello
What did I just hear? A summary of everything Fossati has done since Ventilazione. Compelling, reflective, instrumental tracks—there's truly an embarrassment of riches. And then the triptych Treno di ferro, Disciplina della terra, Invisibile... stuff that makes you satisfied for life! Up until the subsequent listens of Lindbergh, Macramè, and La disciplina, my ranking is:
1/2: La pianta del tè
2/1: Discanto
3/4: La disciplina della terra
4/3: Macramè
5: Lindbergh more

Ivano Fossati — Macramè | DeRank™: 4,23

It's another masterpiece. The first part (from La vita segreta to L'angelo e la pazienza included) is truly one of the highlights of the author, at the peak, featuring five wonderful masterpieces like La vita segreta or the stunning L'amante, but the other three (especially Il canto dei mestieri) are marvels of songs as well. The second part loses a bit of inspiration but still remains at excellent levels, showcasing gems like Labile, Bella speranza, and L'orologio americano. It all concludes with the instrumental Speakering, a spectacular and fitting closure. In conclusion, this Macramè has convinced me more than Lindbergh but not as much as Discanto and La pianta del tè. Still a masterpiece. more
Vinicio Capossela -Ovunque Proteggi
Martello
What an album! The first part merges powerful tracks like the opener Non trattare and the spectacular Brucia troia, before diving into the childish and playful Dalla parte di Spessotto and the crazy Moska valza. Even Al Colosseo, L'uomo vivo, and Medusa cha cha cha are very enjoyable nonetheless. The second part might lose some immediacy by featuring six ballads, but the great tracks are not lacking, starting from the sensational Nutless to reach the essential diptych of the album, namely S.S dei naufragati and Ovunque proteggi. One of the most important works of the twenty years and one of the best by Vinicio, along with Canzoni a manovella. more
Ivano Fossati -Lindbergh (Lettere da sopra la pioggia)
Martello
He told me less about Discanto. Always a high level, masterpieces like Sigonella, La Madonna Nera, Mio fratello che guardi il mondo, Notturno delle tre, Poca voglia di fare il soldato, and Lindbergh are not easily forgotten. However, compared to the previous two, it didn't completely captivate me. Not less beautiful, just less heartfelt. It's a matter of taste; some prefer pandoro over panettone, but they enjoy both. more

Another masterpiece. It hits you in the gut in an incredible way, featuring wonderful songs like Lusitania, Discanto, Lunario di settembre, Italiani d'Argentina, Passalento, and Confessione di Alonso Chisciano. Inspired, brilliantly arranged, and never understated. And Albertina represents me too much. more
