Genesis Foxtrot

25 jul 08

Voto:

To be honest, I am much more fond of the previous albums ("Trespass" and "Nursery Cryme") and the one that followed ("Selling England...") than of Foxtrot. It has always seemed a bit haphazard to me and somewhat lacking the band's true potential at the time. And the surrealist Peter Gabriel of "Supper's Ready" has never fully convinced me (the same goes for the concept of "The Lamb...").

An album that is anything but trivial and an enthusiastic review. Back in '87, there were three albums that drove me crazy: this one, King Diamond's "Abigail," and Celtic Frost's "Into the Pandemonium." Even though today, when it comes to doom, I prefer a rougher sound (Trouble or Saint Vitus, just to give an example), I still hold a strong affection for this gem.

More accessible and straightforward than "Arbeit macht frei," it retains its strength and musical quality. Demetrio stays in my heart. The review is excellent as well, and I particularly appreciate the contextualization.

pardon: the intermezzo, not the overture

I’d like to make a clarification: more than Puccini, it’s Mascagni. "Preludio" is quite inspired by the overture of "Cavalleria Rusticana."

I've been looking for it for a long time, and I still can't find it... and with this, I become even more curious.

Pino Daniele Nero A Metà

Before "A ma me piace 'o blues," even Jamiroquai should bow down! This is the Pino Daniele I like!!!

the other David Allen (and if I'm wrong here I'll make a wonderful double) was one of the founders of Soft Machine - with whom he played on the first album - and then founded Gong. And I don't know more...

AC/DC Let There Be Rock

Voto:

I love this album, but the review... Van Halen and Aerosmith watching AC/DC through binoculars: each had its own characteristics and merits, you might prefer the band in question, but that's no good reason to denigrate the others. Plus, the idea that there were no other alternatives to punk during '76/'78 is something they'd only tell you on MTV: just to stay within hard rock, we could also mention Thin Lizzy, Heart, and Rush, while if you go outside of that, without even bringing up the dance scene, there were still excellent names (Kraftwerk or Kate Bush), but now I'm going a bit off-topic. To summarize: I don't like reviews that, to exalt the subject in question, spew crap on everything else.

Stevie Nicks Bella Donna

Well done for reviewing this album! Stevie has mesmerized me, and when in the title track he sings "Come in, out of the darkness" and, almost in a prayer, "Don't change, baby please, don't change," he gives me endless emotions. Great recommendation.
