We’re not quite at the top yet, but it’s definitely the breakthrough album: the somewhat lethargic Dolls-clones transform into refined and cold dandies ready to point the way to the '80s. In Vogue, The Other Side of Life, and the dynamic title track outline the future coordinates.

No historical pieces but rather an improved sequence of tracks. A sense of measure that later Anderson will only maintain to keep himself balanced in his rockstar crossovers.

Only in Italy did it come out with the American cover of "Joe Cocker" and the European title "Something To Say." Today, confusion is inevitable, but the album remains a classic Studio/Live in a swirl of grace. The prophetic blues of St. James Infirmary belongs solely to him, just as the songwriting of High Time We Went doesn't belong to Zucchero.

    Never listened to it again, but I adore the first Cocker! Especially this one and "With a Little Help..". Classic!

    Not even For Whose Fault? belongs to Zucchero (it didn’t even belong to Joe, since Hitchcock Railway wasn’t his, so the Fornaciaro plagiarized a cover...). Not even New Wonderful Friend (Hello Little Friend), not even Mint & Rosemary (Sandpaper Cadillac)... long list.
