Eh, forgive me, thejargonking... I didn't really understand. What is this review that's missing?....

It's true, Mocampo. But it's still mine. And then... is this perhaps the first time you've read a review of this album?

Some clarifications in no particular order. Very often, when talking about Pink Floyd, two albums are overlooked, whose existence remains uncertain to this day, but which undoubtedly merit to fully integrate the English quartet into the "AOR" genre, a term that - as many will know - was coined by Klaus Davi and Mario Luzzatto Fegiz during a night of multiple dental abscesses. In fact, considering "The Kitchen" and "An Accountant over the Rainbow," the album just reviewed certainly has the most subtle AOR spirit (indeed, by playing track no. 4 backward, one can distinctly hear Roger Waters chanting the theme of the Barbapapà). The fact remains that in literature - at least up to the moment we go to press - there seems to be no trace of these two works, except in the middle school textbook from the province of Bergamo, whose authority in musical matters is frequently questioned. Nevertheless, the janitor of the "Leopoldo Franchetti" school in Caravaggio seems ready to swear on the existence of these two masterpieces... According to him, the first was written in 1968, immediately after the famous "A Saucerful of Secrets." During that time, the relationship between Waters and Barrett was already quite strained, and most of the grievances stemmed from a differing assessment of the phenomenon "Celentano," which was then quite popular in Italy, although both considered him, albeit with different nuances, an idiot. The release of the single "Una carezza in un pugno" shattered the precarious balance of an already unstable situation: out of spite, Barrett signed up for the Cantagiro, where he fell in love with a very young Caterina Caselli and later founded a Hippie community in San Casciano Val di Pesa, where he still lives, running a vegetarian deli. Waters, on the other hand, desperate at the thought of having lost his friend, first attempted to commit suicide by uttering the word "trendy" near Asor Rosa, then decided to turn the page by composing one of the group's most introspective and intimate albums. Unfortunately, just as it was about to go to print, the pony express that was to deliver the invaluable recording to the label's studios decided to betray its mercurial vocation by enrolling in a Materials Engineering program. The package containing the first recording of "The Kitchen" thus ended up in the hands of Jonathan Barrymore, a porter from Hillingdon waiting for a Capricciosa. The laconic words he delivered to History and the operator of "Pizza Home Inc." were: "Was'nt the Limoncello included in the bill?". The genesis of "An Accountant over the Rainbow" remains shrouded in legendary halos. Andrew King and Peter Jenner - the two brilliant managers of the London group - were actually homosexual, and as such, would have sold their mothers to the Bedouins just to attend a concert by Raffaella Carrà, then a debutante and the first user of the phrase "I want to become a complete showgirl." They obtained tickets for the show of the Bolognese artist, but upon exiting the theater, they met their demise, overwhelmed by the crowd fleeing from the adjacent Cineforum where "The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant" by Rainer Werner Fassbinder was being screened. The two impresarios were hastily buried on the spot, where it is still possible to find an inscription that reads: "To Andrew and Peter, who flew fat in the sky of that autumn day in the London industrial area." Could the cover of Animals just be a dedication?

Honestly beautiful. Thank you.

Yes. However, if we're being very precise with our little finger raised, that's not really a tautology, you know...

As for me, knowing this album well, I have a specific question: But where would the Puccinian influences be, if I may ask?... Thank you.

I confess to you brothers and to the Lord, our God, that I have only recently discovered them. And I was left stunned.

I don't know a single note of this guy... The important thing is that he's not the one from the Andreotti era of the famous... "'A Fra'.. what do you need?".

A review on the edge of perfection, in my opinion. May the Lord - in His infinite goodness - open His merciful arms to you and forgive you for the phrase "the love song takes a completely different turn from the usual light tune à la Battisti".

Certo, invia pure il testo e procederò con la traduzione.
