Soft Machine — Third | DeRank™: 0,00

Forgive me, but I can't give this album a 5; maybe it's because I'm new to this genre of music, but for me, the first disc is quite challenging (that doesn't mean it can't be a masterpiece, for heaven's sake). That said, "Moon in June" is a chilling suite, and the last suite is another great track with real impact. My rating is 7.5. more

Fleetwood Mac — Rumours | DeRank™: 1,95

It's impossible not to include this record in an ideal disco, if only because it's one of the best-selling and most well-known in the history of pop music: over 25 million copies. A record that is both timeless and incredibly current. It was released in 1977, when punk was raging in England. On the other side of the ocean, on the west coast of the United States, however, people were thinking of something entirely different, giving life to what remains, in fact, the pinnacle of the Californian sound in its most pop interpretation. more

Robert Wyatt — Rock Bottom | DeRank™: 2,61

An ambitious and particularly challenging LP, at least for me during the first listens, truly unique in its kind, where R.W. manages to transform music into a cry of pain and despair, through which he communicates his new condition of life after the accident, although he subtly reveals a desire to live and hope in the final track. more

King Crimson — Lizard | DeRank™: 2,71

It has now been 45 years since then, and it is still exceptional and undoubtedly the most relevant among the early K.C. albums, even though for many prog has been surpassed for over 30 years and the K.C. have taken different paths, not remaining on the one from Lizard, which even today has no equal in terms of beauty, to be listened to again and appreciated even by those who do not love prog and jazz... more

Walt Disney | DeRank™: 0,00

I try to be blunt and honest: I never grew up with Disney movies, I hated TV, and because of that I’ve probably seen a maximum of 5 or 6. Perhaps that's why I don't love Walt Disney and everything he produced. In particular, certain characters like Mickey Mouse, while seminal, I have never really taken to, and more often than not, the good Walt also took credit for things that weren’t his, underpaying or firing employees for trivial reasons. Why the 4? Well, he invented animation as we know it now, joyful and deep, “agrodolce”... more

King Crimson | DeRank™: 1,75

In a different but unique way, the first 4 LPs are unforgettable, to take with you to a desert island; among these, for me, the best is Lizard. more

Beautiful as the original, with some pieces of the 1990 theater show excluded from the album released in '93. Of course, for Tom Waits completists. more

Tin Machine — Tin Machine | DeRank™: 0,00

Impetuous, triumphant, sick: a rock album completely alien to Bowie's style yet somehow immeasurably his. It's a shame not all the tracks are that lively; in fact, many last a minute or two too long. However, the beautiful "Pretty Things" and "Video Crime" are definitely worth mentioning. more

Great record, perhaps slightly better than the excellent World Record. The sounds become more "acoustic" and "accessible," yet still of high quality. I still wonder why I didn't discover the generator sooner... more

How to compress about ten different genres (I certainly won't list them, there are too many!) each one apart from the other into a double album (consisting of 45 songs, each one very different from the others, characterized by a short duration), a milestone in the music of the late twentieth century: stuff that only the Minutemen can pull off. Uncatalogable, unclassifiable, pure adrenaline and madness for a full 1 hour and 15 minutes! Incredible! more

Leonardo da Vinci | DeRank™: 1,77

"Great gifts are often seen to rain down from the celestial influences into human bodies; and beyond the natural, sometimes overwhelming beauty, grace, and virtue can come together in a single body in such a way that wherever that person turns, each of their actions is so divine that, leaving all other men behind, they are manifestly recognized as something (as it is) bestowed by God, and not acquired through human skill. This is what men saw in Leonardo da Vinci."
