MIEN_MO_MAN for president! You've said everything that needs to be said about Consoli: I can only fully agree. AZZO about Battiato, you're mistaken: I also thought he was a show-off when I was younger... then growing up, I realized he's one of the few who knows how to make music...

Nirvana MTV Unplugged in New York

Probably the best-played album by NIRVANA. The review deserves a 1 just for the disgraceful opening line "Perhaps the most beautiful live album in the history of music." Meanwhile, the rest is the usual stuff, full of inaccuracies, imprecisions, and various nonsense, as pointed out by those before me.
Beyond the album's worth, this album is the apotheosis of MTV Style: a band distributed worldwide thanks to MTV, playing on an MTV show, in front of an audience of MTV-dependent kids, and recording for MTV! It's worth reflecting on...

But if many say that the review is "well written," why not give it the maximum (as it deserves)? The album is frankly forgettable compared to what the WHO have produced.

Litfiba 12-5-87 (aprite i vostri occhi)

BUBI, indeed the songs you mention are the worst of Litfiba and among the most cringe-worthy ever heard in Italy (for example, the ridiculous "regina di cuori, mi mandi di fuori"). On top of that, add Pelù's new singing style... The worthy songs of Litfiba are those from the '80s, and then came the pop drivel or, at best, the recycling of old ideas in a tacky rock version.

Great Live, for a great band: the one from the 80s, with MAROCCOLO, AIAZZI, RENZULLI, and PELU'... then with ElDIABLO came the great sellout, the sound shifted to pure commercial, the dark/new wave roots were denied, and everything became MOOOLTO guitar-driven... The early records of LITFIBA along with CCCP are absolutely essential for anyone interested in 80s Italian music.

Dear UXO, you are truly lucky to have left this infamous land... where CDs are always sold at exorbitant prices (and those few on sale are never less than 9 euros).

For anyone who might be interested (and lucky): there is a complete box set of PRESTIGE records by MILES DAVIS. Davis & co. recorded the material that PRESTIGE later released in just two days (or two sets), in these unmissable albums. AROUND 'ABOUT MIDNIGHT is a masterpiece (as well as the first COLUMBIA record, recorded after the PRESTIGE ones), a must-have!

The MILES albums from PRESTIGE are a must-have! RELAXIN' COOKIN' WALKIN' STEAMIN' WORKIN', a dive into the most classic 50s jazz sound, just a step away from modal. ***
