The Czars Sorry I Made You Cry

Fusillo is a cover of Tim Buckley, by the way, it's really beautiful. But all in all, the entire album is worth listening to, bye.

really good Zion, you almost managed to convince me :)

Johann Sebastian Bach L'Arte Della Fuga

Beautiful page for reviews and comments. Debaser is lovely for this reason too; reading makes you want to listen again. In this case, I put on the background the version by the Keller Quartet that you mentioned, John. I could have opted for Gould, which is still a nice listen, but I feel attached to this quartet version that I remembered - and the listening confirms it - very profound.

Keith Jarrett The Carnegie Hall Concert

Sorry for the delay, Nick, but honestly I don't know what you're talking about, although I'm glad you brought it up :) Anyway, getting back to the album, after listening to it I think for a long time, maybe revisiting other works, I believe in this case it should be said that it needs to be placed within a broader context of solo piano. Jarrett is on a path; Radiance and Carnegie Hall are two closely spaced stops that complete the journey. And I actually didn't mind the applause, quite the opposite... Bye!

Nanni Svampa All'osteria con Nanni Svampa

A few years ago, Svampa released a great album (Donne Gorilla Fantasmi e Lillà) that features many beautiful songs, some mentioned on this page. Listening to it, one realizes the importance of this musician who, with I Gufi (there’s a nice double CD from Emi about them), truly wrote some significant pages of song-theater. Pages that can be appreciated even by those who are not from Milan. The review seems to focus little on the man and the artist; the introduction feels unnecessary, and it leads you to some somewhat myopic judgments regarding "just merits." Bye.

Well, in reality, if we want to conduct a thorough analysis of this virtual space, there is often a habit here of freely spreading insinuations and insults, most of the time unfounded. This is not the case, of course. However, I must say that after reading the two pieces carefully, it seems excessive to talk about plagiarism and copying. The similarities mentioned may simply stem from common sources between the two pieces, but still, both have their originality. In my opinion, a couple of adjectives are not enough to scream plagiarism. You seem a bit too confident in what you’re saying, perhaps because you read Scaruffi? Just kidding :) Bye

Piano Magic Incurable

I remember Giubbo's nice review that intrigued me, but after a fleeting listen, I didn't get hooked. This time too, some references in the review catch my interest, but I have the impression that I'll let it go; unfortunately, there's not enough time for everything.

I liked Dogs even though I think I listened to it too little, come on, put in some samples.

I like hybrids, but I have the impression that this one isn't for me; it doesn't particularly attract me, in short. Of course, I should listen to it... Anyway, the review sparks the right interest.
