A magnificent B. with the Swans. Less so with the Nutcracker. more
All three Suites from the Ballets in one go! Here, the play of contrasts and dynamics is strong. more

Musica Antiqua Koln - R. Goebel (conductor)
An interesting disc, especially for discovering a bit of Mancini and Barbella. Vivaldi is decent but not a main reference. more

The album that definitively launched Blink 182 is undoubtedly this one and is considered the best of the Californian band, thanks to the presence of songs like "What's My Age Again?", "All The Small Things," and "Adam's Song," which are surely among the most commercial in the entire Blink repertoire. However, there remains a trace of the previous Blink sound in songs like "The Party Song" and "Anthem." The addition of new drummer "Travis Barker" is noticeable and provides Blink with that sonic foundation that with S more
After buying "Enema Of The State" and "Take Off Your Pants And Jacket," I was struck by the reviews and comments regarding this album online, and I decided to buy it. My first impression was of a punk-metal-pop or a similar genre that I couldn't quite describe; certainly, the whole album is less commercial than all those released after it, aside from songs like "Josie" or "Dammit," where you can definitely hear the more commercial stamp of the following CDs.

The genius of Fripp, always surrounded by musicians as skilled and eclectic as he is, offers his interpretation of the Rock genre, featuring metallic outbursts, dreamlike mellotron glides, and jazzy escapades that disorient and annihilate. The result is overwhelming. more
A groundbreaking album from the Birmingham quartet, perhaps not superior to its two predecessors, but with an increasingly sultry and heavy sound. Tracks in true stoner style, over twenty years ahead of their time. Masters of dozens upon dozens of bands from the generations that followed. more
The perfect album with Bon Scott. From the title track to "Night Prowler," ten punches of pure Hard Rock in the style of AC/DC, without any frills. They were and still are just like that. "Walk All Over You" is overwhelming and irresistible, above all! more
The album of full maturity for the Irish band. A perfect album that truly stands at an immensely higher level than everything they had done before. The last remaining flag-bearers, in those disastrous 80s, of a musical genre, rock, which exploded imperiously at the dawn of the seventies and was destroyed by punk before being reborn, also thanks to U2. more
