Raw and bare, voice still shrill and acoustic guitar as the sole accompaniment. However, there are already memorable tracks. 3.5-4. more

Jimi Hendrix — Electric Ladyland | DeRank™: 8,52

Masterpiece, listened to 40 some years later, hasn’t aged at all.
Hendrix leaps from genre to genre while still giving it his stamp; Voodoo Child (not the slight return) is a blues masterpiece. more

DeGarmo is gone, the QR's are over. After that, they were something else. Operation Mindcrime is their masterpiece. My vote is only for the DeGarmo era. more

Zucchero | DeRank™: 0,00

Making countless albums by copying a song by Joe Cocker.
Now that Joe Cocker is dead, why not copy him in this as well?
P.S.: it's as relevant to the blues as cabbage is to a snack. more

SydBarrett96
An album that is a hefty stone of difficult digestibility, with deep, existential, and bordering-on-paranoid lyrics. But it is precisely for its eloquence, for its excessive verbosity, for the abyss of pessimism that defines it, that I love it. It remains a peculiar chapter in Guccini's discography: this is a record of only words, and as such, the sparse arrangements fit perfectly. more

It's not that masking pop as "smart stuff" is necessarily a bad thing. And they haven't just done that. Between the early days, which for me are really too silly, and the latest albums, which often get lost along the way, there are three top-notch records. more

Dragonstar
A great album suspended between rock and intimacy, interpreted by the gritty voice of a great singer-songwriter. The title track, raw and melancholic, is an experience to try at least once in a lifetime. The only flaw: the tracklist is a bit static from a musical standpoint. more

Lunar, hallucinatory, almost psychedelic. His voice has never been so biting when discussing death, ghosts, existence, and the fleeting nature of time. A landmark album in the history of Italian songwriting, and it was only '70. more

Kiss — Creatures Of The Night | DeRank™: 0,00

Francesco Guccini — Radici | DeRank™: 10,86

The roots sought at the borders of memories, to understand the soul that resides within each of us. Seven memorable tracks, beautiful, textually impeccable, scattered among youthful loves ("Incontro"), inner reminiscences ("Piccola Città," title track), and existential themes (the Portoghese Girl, the Twelve Months, the Old Man and the Child). There remains the political gallop of the Locomotiva, one of his most unconventional songs that, ironically, has become one of the most popular. Masterpiece. 9.5. more
