Alemarcon: Come un gelato all'equatore Traccia 07 in Come un gelato all'equatore Album - 1999

Pino, only you know how much I've cared for you, but I can't forgive you for this. I'm sorry. more
Pino Daniele -Non Calpestare I Fiori Nel Deserto
Ditta
This album wasn't exactly an unbearable piece of junk (unlike almost everything that comes after), but for me it marks the beginning of the end for the good Pino. There are still a few interesting moments, like in "O cammello 'nnamurato," "Anima," or "Oasi," but overall it remains a decidedly mediocre work. I won't comment on the most famous track of the album (of course, "Io per lei"). Rating: 2 decent balls. more

Franco Battiato — Dieci Stratagemmi | DeRank™: 0,00

the best Battiato of the last twenty years, with beautiful pieces like "tra sesso e castità," "ermeneutica," "23 coppie...," "la porta dello spavento supremo," and especially "le aquile non volano a stormi." the rest also maintains a good level. 4 round balls more

"from skin to heart" was coming close to being a good record. I don't know anything about this and I don't want to know. more
Enzo Carella -Carella De Carellis
Martello
Nice collection. The unreleased tracks are really impressive, in fact there are compositions like Aspetta and S.P.A and L'occhio nero that can be counted among Carella's classics. Then there's Bubbà, which is something mythical, and La pappa del cuore and Pensa se una are very cute. Too bad about the B-side, sure, old hits and all that, but the audio quality is something abominable. What a pity, if it had been recorded a bit better it could have come close to the levels of Vocazione.... #maybe more
Vinicio Capossela -Canzoni a Manovella
Martello
Crazy and extraordinary album. It starts off strong with Bardamù and its fireworks, continues with heavyweights like Decervellamento, Maraja, I pagliacci, I pianoforti di Lubecca, Suona Rosamunda, Con una rosa, Signora luna, Marcia del camposanto. Additionally, it features three gems in between like Canzone a manovella, Nella pioggia, and Corre il soldato...not an album for everyone, but certainly an impressive and significant one. more

I believe she is the person who understands me best in this world. Her writings have repeatedly left me astounded by the absolute precision with which they describe my life. As a person, she is unbearable; as a bon vivant, she is the best creator of anecdotes and aphorisms since Oscar Wilde; as an artist, she is a genius. more

MICHAEL JACKSON — dangerous | DeRank™: 0,00

From here on, the disaster. The transformation of MJ into a pale alien-human shapeshifter is now definitively complete and "the Jones era" has come to an end. The humanoid decides to update his music, modernizing his style by blending it with trends and genres that were prominent at the time as novelties (Hip-Pop inserts and so on). Alright, Prince did the same in the '90s, for example, but what the pale x-file manages to create is a hodgepodge of stuff thrown together. "Dangerous" is a muddled album, with a lot of really awful tracks, which try too hard to have groove and engaging rhythms and end up being unbearably boring, ugly, and irritating. Then there's Jackson's now uncontrollable megalomania (which is evident even in the "gigantism" of overly diluted tracks just because) complete with a messianic Redeemer Syndrome (the guy had issues...) that explodes in the most unbearable track on the album: the disingenuous "Heal the World," which opens with a child (AAAAAHHHH) reciting a little part and then continues... I mean, you could fall asleep halfway through. And "Will You be There," which would have been nice if it weren't drowned in redundant sacral choirs and... for God's sake, Michael, take out that little poem at the end, what is that, what the hell are you doing... Anyway, a few moments of brilliance are saved; "In the Closet" and the title track are perhaps the most successful in this stylistic "renewal," and "Keep the Faith" is good too, along with "Who is It" and the dry and delicate "Gone Too Soon." The rest is garbage. more
