Claudio Lolli Ho visto anche degli zingari felici

28 nov 06

Voto:

Floydman, what the hell are you talking about? 1 to the Doors, 1 to Lolli. Oh right, I forgot, music was invented by Pink Floyd. At least explain the reason behind your judgments, dear little baby of mine who plays at knowing about music.

Paul Simon Still Crazy After All These Years

28 nov 06

Voto:

Of the two, Paul Simon was definitely four or five steps above Art Garfunkel. A record I don’t know, but that I would like to listen to.

Pink Floyd The Dark Side of the Moon

Voto:

Is this a joke?

Pink Floyd Pulse

25 nov 06

Voto:

Not among the best of Pink Floyd, and then Dave, Pink Floyd were a great band but not the greatest. I will never tire of saying it: the Who were much, much better, maybe they are, if we want, the greatest band of all time.

Queen News Of The World

25 nov 06

Voto:

Maybe it's the least worst of the Queen, but their best is 3 ("A Night At The Opera"), and I repeat, for the umpteenth time, they have never been an essential band, just a mass phenomenon and a cultural trend. Here, the worst are precisely the most bombastic songs: "We Are The Champions", a very simplistic and repetitive stadium anthem, and "We Will Rock You", not scary (as the reviewer says), simply copied (the whistles of Otis Redding, ring a bell?).

AA.VV. Apocalypse Now (Soundtrack)

25 nov 06

Voto:

So, DaveJonGilmour, the most important films about Vietnam are "Apocalypse Now" and "The Deer Hunter" (if you haven't seen them, watch them as soon as possible). "Full Metal Jacket," which is a masterpiece, has little or nothing to do with Vietnam; it is actually a kind of macabre comedy that aims to reflect on the madness of war using metaphors or sexual double entendres. The Vietnamese setting is fictional; it could have been set during World War I, and the content wouldn't change. And do you know why he didn’t do that? Because he already did thirty years earlier with "Paths of Glory," an anti-militarist film set precisely during World War I.

Fiorella Mannoia Onda Tropicale

25 nov 06

Voto:

Oh Lazzaroblu, I discovered it on my own skin. On DeBaser, don’t talk about Mannoia because a flood of 1 will come crashing down on you. I know, it doesn’t matter that she’s liked by the crème de la crème of our best singer-songwriters (see De Gregori, Fossati), on DeBaser you have to talk either about metal stuff or about psychedelic bands (which, of course, are all amazing, as they say here) or about other things that no one knows exist, except for a few users of this site. I’m looking forward to some new reviews on some new Japanese, Indian, or Korean band.

Wilson Pickett Hey Jude

25 nov 06

Voto:

Great tribute to the great Wilson Pickett, too bad that many on this site don't even know who he is. On the other hand, we have 60 reviews of Iron Maiden, 50 of Oasis, the same number for Metallica, and a ton of duplicates of Pink Floyd. We're doing really well.

Metallica St. Anger

25 nov 06

Voto:

On this supposed disc (I say supposed because I’ve never listened to it), there were already 7 reviews. Is it really necessary to have another one?

Adriano Celentano Io Non So Parlar d'Amore

25 nov 06

Voto:

Shooting at Celentano. He may be a populist, but at least he knows how to hit the right notes of success without resorting to vulgarity or banality (does Pausini ring a bell?). Mogol's lyrics aren't that bad, and when compared to the entire body of Celentano's work from the late Seventies to this album (just think of the big hits like "Soli," "Ti avrò," "Susanna"), this album represents a rebirth artistically. Only to then embarrass himself with "C'è sempre un motivo," but "Io non so parlar d'amore" frankly is the least of the evils.
