Robert Wyatt — Rock Bottom | DeRank™: 0,68

In the autumn of 1972, Wyatt dissolved Matching Mole, the band he had been leading, and followed his partner Alfreda Benge to Venice, where she was working on a film.
In the Venetian capital, Alfreda convinced him to compose a new album and gifted him a small organ and a tape recorder, with which Wyatt recorded the first part of the music for Rock Bottom.
He would later declare that the particular atmosphere of Giudecca helped him draw inspiration at a time when he had no compositional ideas.

Peter Green — The End Of The Game | DeRank™: 1,85

Well, here on Debasio there are two reviews, the excellent one by "Charley" written on August 30, 2006, during the late-night show (which I read and commented on at the time) & the more recent and rather uninteresting one by "Allegretti" from May 20, 2011. more

Flea: "If you don't like this album, you don't like the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Period."
Well, I've listened to it little, maybe 7 or 8 times, always in the car between trips or waiting outside malls while my girl was shopping with my credit card, and I swear to God I don't know where the hell it went, to the point that I have a sneaking suspicion that she threw it out the window when she went to pee... more

LUNA SEA — EDEN | DeRank™: 2,02

incredible album. I don't know how to explain it, it's a blend of genres, you can find everything from new wave to hard rock. the production is perfect, the twin guitars are developed meticulously. in my opinion, the best tracks are Jesus, In My Dream which feels like a shoegaze piece, and Providence, a masterpiece of chamber pop with the violin in the foreground. more

The musical styles of BSSM differ significantly from the techniques used in the RHCP's previous album "Mother's Milk," which features a reduced use of heavy metal riffs with the guitar.
The album contains sexual innuendos, references to drugs and death, and themes such as lust and exuberance. (uh, go figure…)
Steve Huey from AllMusic noted that BSSM is "probably the best album the RHCP have ever made." (quote from wiki & my own parentheses…) more

The Punisher
This is a book that’s getting me really excited. Above all, it has rekindled my desire to read and to get passionate about a story. A twisted story, even rotten and dark. A story that seems written by Tim Burton's granddaughter, and which is at times ruthless and comical all at once. A RAW and visionary book, penned by a true talent of a girl (22 years old at the time of writing) who swings between cultured quotes and powerful aphorisms that are like hallucinogens. If you find it, grab it quickly... ;) <3 Then don’t say I didn’t warn you, okay? more

The theme of the album is the comparison between two peoples, the Sardinians and the Native Americans, who are similar in some ways and very different in others, both threatened by external invaders. (cit. wiki) more

Fabrizio De André — Canzoni | DeRank™: 0,00

It is considered a transitional album as it closes the era of the four concept albums and foreshadows, with the unreleased "Via della povertà" (lyrics and music by Bob Dylan, translated by De Gregori at the time of Folkstudio, co-signed by De André), the collaboration with Francesco De Gregori and an openness to Anglo-Saxon folk/rock influences, which will manifest even more with the albums composed together with the Veronese singer-songwriter Massimo Bubola. more

In an interview with Corriere della Sera in 1974, FDA said: "... written in a year and a half of tremendous turmoil and when it came out, I wanted to burn the record. It was the first time I declared myself politically and I know I used a language that was too obscure, difficult; I know I failed to express myself clearly."
The musical value of the record will be fully recognized by much of the critics only in the 1990s. (cit. wiki) more

This is also a concept album inspired by some poems from the Spoon River Anthology of 1915 by Edgar Lee Masters (even the rocks know this by now, at least those with a minimum of culture...). more
