Modà
Pupo in Band version. more
J-Ax
What hurt me the most was his "rise." This made me realize that my generation has lost. more
Francesco Renga
Until "Un giorno bellissimo" (2010), he displayed a certain belonging... a pop-rock, sometimes rock, sometimes "power," rich in nuances. Subsequently, he did everything to fill the Arena di Verona, he lowered himself, and got comfortable with people like Alessandra Amoroso; he changed his style (not genre, but style, which is very serious), completely renouncing his roots. A total disappointment. All this only served him to gather a few gold records (which today are worth nothing), some fans born in 2000, and some fashionable TV appearances. Basically, he has devoured his career. more
Toto Cutugno
The monstrously trash version of the "typical Italian songwriter," sometimes even "committed." In the '80s, you could find him in the credits of all the popular singers of the time. He definitely has more dignity than many false authors today. more
Jean-Luc Ponty
Truly remarkable more
Edoardo Bennato -OK Italia
It's the last album by Edo that I really liked.. I would give it a 7.5. more
Daniele Groff
A talented individual who, mysteriously, produces little. What a pity. And yet, they exist... more
Pupo
I have always denied, first and foremost to myself, its existence in the Italian music scene. more
Luca Carboni
You don't come out alive from the early '90s. more
Lucio Battisti
Dante Alighieri (Language), Michelangelo Buonarroti (Art), Niccolò Machiavelli (Politics), Giuseppe Verdi (Music), Lucio Battisti (Modern music), etc. more
Franco Battiato
Dante Alighieri (Language), Michelangelo Buonarroti (Art), Niccolò Machiavelli (Politics), Giuseppe Verdi (Music), Franco Battiato (Modern music), etc. more
Eros Ramazzotti
Same qualities of an institutionalized Vasco Rossi, in a decidedly pop key. Lots of beautiful songs. A guy who has never written a song by himself (at least 3 or 4 authors for each of his tracks doing the heavy lifting), he at most contributes a word and a note for the SIAE. Despite this, he defines himself a singer-songwriter since the very beginning. You won't believe it, but he's actually better as a guitarist; "technically," he sounds good at first glance; yes, at first glance he’s more technically skilled than many famous guitarists. Regarding sound and identity, ZERO. more
Ivano Fossati
This sublime singer-songwriter and musician, this gentleman in blue jeans manages to be a meticulous poet without too many frills, to be refined and cultured without being overly elitist-redundant, without pulling the plug too much; he is also able to be rock without making too much noise. This gentleman is able to be, as well, mainstream without being pop. For himself and for those who have interpreted him. more
Don Backy
Is it just me, or does "Sognando" seem like a masterpiece? more
Le Orme
Simply one of the greatest rock bands of all time. Owning their discography, and not just that, makes me feel fortunate and fulfilled. more
Fiorella Mannoia
Someone who sings well, elevated, acclaimed by critics and later by that people who have always confused Battiato with Branduardi (both excellent), at maximum power. Essentially, she is considered more illustrious than the very illustrious singer-songwriters who give her songs... someone who sings (very well, okay, okay) and nothing more, who in Italy is almost aligned with people like Gaber, Guccini, Paoli. In other words (fiction): she belongs to that genre, she is highly cultured. Mind-boggling. more
Vasco Rossi
Certainly great (an immense truth and a COMMON PLACE). A Rockstar who paradoxically, from my point of view, is not a Rocker (he used to be). From my perspective, Francesco De Gregori is more rock (this definition is also a common place). more
Edoardo Bennato -Abbi Dubbi
The beginning of the end of Edo and the swan song. Between 3 and 3.5, some ideas hit the mark, but you can feel the magic from many previous works is missing. more
Litfiba -Terremoto
After the misstep "El diablo," here comes the masterpiece: a beautiful album, undoubtedly the best of the tetralogy of the elements, with standout tracks like "Maudit," "Fata Morgana," and "Prima guardia." The score would be 4.5, but I'm not ashamed to give it that extra half point. more
Jovanotti -Ora
The Lorenfo never disappoints. Masterpiece, grandissimo difco! more
