Great albums until 1975 ("Tumbleweed Connection" above all), then he would have a less sharp but still valid period until 1978. From 1979 until around 2000, he alternated a few good albums with too many - way too many - absurd flops, before completely bouncing back in 2001 (the year of "Songs from the West Coast"). Average? 4.5. more
But he couldn't keep unloading trucks!? more
"In 2012, he won the Premio Lunezia Pop d'Autore for the Musical-Literary value of the album Unica." Taken from Venditti's Wikipedia page.........I don’t know about you, but those from the Lunezia award really need to see a good doctor. more
Horror! Horror! more
Visionary, genius, experimenter, he opens up a world. All of this is Robert Wyatt. more
One of the true and authentic Italian rockers. Great until 1983, then many mediocre albums, with the excellent interlude of Joe Sarnataro. Live, he is still spectacular. more
Unmistakable sound, inventor of the famous "Tulsa sound," a pillar of rock guitar. more
There are eight of us: seven big guys and just one girl.

Assuming the prevailing belief that in nature there are (or would be) seven women for every male individual, they represent the striking exemplification of the chronic shortage of fauna among the performers and fans of pure metal. more
A successful sports film set in the world of car racing, a rare and worthwhile endeavor for an Italian movie. Matteo Rovere directs with good pace. The best performance by Stefano Accorsi, very believable in the role of the protagonist. more
The most beautiful romantic comedy of the last 50 years. Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan at their very best. Moral: you can’t lie to yourself if you’ve fallen in love. You’re just hurting yourself... more
An introverted comic book artist falls in love with a beautiful weirdo. She constantly gets into trouble, and he doesn’t have the guts to handle the situation. Better to forget everything with artificial amnesia. However, the chemistry of Love is relentless. more
Even the most disturbing nightmares tremble in the face of Fascism!!! more
A lesser-known group in the prog rock scene, but with very interesting ideas. And the magical guitar of Latimer. more
Long live the Crimson King! more
I don't understand how Renga moved from the songs of Timoria to the canzonette of Sanremo. Such wasted talent. more
Even Ligabue understood that good old Neil is quite something. more
If we're going to debate a fundamental artist like Bob Dylan, we might as well shut down DeBaser. more
Essential for Italian singer-songwriter music. Extraordinary artist. more
Certainly an important group but perhaps a bit overrated. They have produced masterpieces nonetheless, and then the wonderful voice of Freddie Mercury did the rest. more
A fundamental artist, his masterpieces are from the 70s, but he was so influential that one can overlook the work done later, which is certainly not on par with his talent. more
