Franco Battiato Caffè De La Paix

Dear EnciclopediaPirletti, read competent newspapers and encyclopedias. You’ll see that everyone gives a 3 while the "pirla," if we want to put it that way, are here, and as soon as they read Battiato like drunkards, they give it a 4 or 5. You’re a pirla, only because you waste time.

Pino Daniele Terra Mia

22 oct 06

Voto:

Pino Daniele in the nineties is depressing, the one from the 2000s even worse. In the eighties, he made a few above-average albums ("Nero a metà," nice, but let's not exaggerate), "Terra Mia" is his absolute masterpiece. It's like saying: he made just one album that is well done, and yet he's been singing for thirty years. Can someone explain to me why?

Van Morrison A Sense Of Wonder

22 oct 06

Voto:

Class, elegance, refinement, for heaven's sake, all valid points: the review is almost convincing, but the freshness of "Astral Weeks" is now just a faint memory. It's the great regret that eventually strikes all the greats of music: you work mechanically, with your head, and leave your heart in the attic. "A Sense Of Wonder," if you listen to it today, runs the risk of being hailed as a masterpiece (given the fluff that passes for radio music), but it's a work from nearly twenty years ago, when the musical landscape was less depressing than it is today. And come on, we’re talking about Van Morrison: from someone like him, you always expect the best.

The Byrds Younger Than Yesterday

Voto:

A great album, unknowingly undervalued and soon forgotten. Here are all the Sixties and all the anger, in folk-country form, typical of that era. Beautiful review.

Franco Battiato Caffè De La Paix

22 oct 06

Voto:

The review definitely deserves full marks, but the album doesn't seem to reach the peak of Battiato's apotheosis. After the experimental operations of the mid-Seventies and the masterpieces of the Eighties ("La voce del padrone," "Mondi lontanissimi," "Orizzonti perduti"), the Nineties feel quite boring and lackluster. Sure, there are still flashes and sparks of great music, but everything feels a bit jumbled, perhaps due to too much eagerness or maybe because of the now evident philosophical digressions of the Sicilian singer-songwriter (he wants to play the guru, and he pays the consequences). The freshness of the past is missing, the originality is absent, and above all, the catchiness is lacking. A 3, like all Battiato's albums from 1990 to today.

Buffalo Springfield Buffalo Springfield

Voto:

The Buffalo Springfield are a piece of music history, especially American. Unfortunately, I don't know them well. Good review.

Miles Davis Kind Of Blue

22 oct 06

Voto:

Beautiful review, significant and timely duplicate. Any word on Miles Davis would be too mundane.

Den Harrow The Best of Den Harrow

Counter, here Human Case number One is you. Your cute little brain can't seem to understand that maybe I gave it a 2 simply because I didn't like the review? And that perhaps that comment was referring to the fact that the guy in question was pathetic? No wait, now that I think about it, you can't figure that out, otherwise you wouldn't be wasting your time counting human cases.

Duke Ellington, Charlie Mingus, Max Roach Money Jungle

I am not aware of the aforementioned album, but I wholeheartedly endorse word for word the review by Stoopid. Surely, such individuals can only produce a perfect and fundamentally brilliant work. If Louis Armstrong had also been there, we would have had the most beautiful quartet in the history of music.
