Marco Nero
Marco Nero is the definition of Italian pre-neoclassicism, cultural movements such as romanticism can only accompany what our mentor Mr. Marco Nero wants us to feel, who seems to want to express his pain and strong emotions in an almost silent scream, certainly not decodable by an ordinary human being, perceptible only by superior beings. Surely his words will not be lost... we all remember his sweet and gentle words... "ti sborro negli occhi," which can only be accompanied by those of his pupil, Dante Alighieri, who, however, has been cuckolded by Beatrice. more
Running Wild -Masquerade
Considered by critics as the beginning of the musical and compositional decline for Running Wild, Masquerade is far from what a distracted reader (and listener) would expect, being anything but a failure. Probably one of the heaviest albums from the German pirates, with the title track and Jorg Michael not holding back on the drums, or the beautiful refrain of Lions Of The Sea, and the riffs of Soleil Royal/Underworld leaving no moment to catch one's breath. The first act of a trilogy centered on good and evil, successful more than well in my opinion, 8. more
Santana -Abraxas
Santana in a state of grace, a perfect album, high-appeal psycho-rock-pop-latin. more
Guy Blakeslee -Ophelia Slowly
Excuse the crude sexism, but just for the cover, this album deserves a top rating. more
Eugenio Finardi -Finardi
Cold and sharp as a blade, for me his best album. After 30 years, it is now available again on a single CD with Secret Streets, the English version. A MUST-HAVE. more
Umberto Maria Giardini
Umberto Maria Giardini, also known by the pseudonym Moltheni (Sant'Elpidio a Mare, June 22, 1968), is an Italian singer-songwriter. Balancing between singer-songwriter style, prog, and post-rock. more
The Pogues
The producer of their first album described them as "a band of drunkards let loose in a recording studio." Then, in the subsequent albums, they left behind some true moments of magic. more
Dave Alvin
A great songwriter, excellent singer, and a good witness to the history of American music. more
The Sugarcubes
Maybe it's because I'm in a period where I appreciate almost everything that comes from Iceland (music, football...), but these really grabbed me even when they were released. And then, what a lightning bolt, Björk! more
Le Orme
Many talk about "Uomo di pezza" and "Felona e Sorona," but I prefer "Florian"... more
The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band
One of the greatest American folk-rock groups. Just their version of "Mr. Bojangles" (and in general, everything from "Uncle Charlie...") is part of the history of American music. more
Slint
Boredom in its purest form more
Gentle Giant -Giant For A Day
we are towards the swan song...the band tries to renew itself to avoid being swept away by the times, the result is a decent album but well below the standards. more
Alberta Cross -The Thief & the Heartbreaker
nothing original, boldly yet elegantly winks at Young, resulting in an excellent debut album. more
Riot -Restless Breed
Rhett Forrester takes over the vocals, and the change is definitely noticeable, both vocally and musically. The Riot gradually lose that Blues/Hard Rock attitude that characterized the first three works, and we hear more refined riffs that are simple but never trivial, while Forrester's more "masculine" tone adds a more mature aspect to Reale's group. Notable songs include C.I.A., the title track, Loanshark, and Showdown. more
iron butterfly -in a gadda da vida
simply one of the fundamental records in the history of music more
Gabriel Garcìa Màrquez -Cent'Anni Di Solitudine
How to bring order to the chaos of life, narrating characters so utterly illogical that only life itself can create. more
Blank Goofee -Blank Goofee 0
Limited edition, 100 copies. more
Pink Floyd -Ummagumma
too much experimentation in the studio album. Beautiful the live. more
