Francesco Guccini Signora Bovary

The highest artistic peak of Guccini. So far it remains unattainable. Elegantly perfect arrangements and refined lyrics. It’s flawless.

Ideal conclusion of "Amerigo" "Metropolis," in a more or less identifiable trilogy of travel. Of the three, the best. The pieces are equivalent in overall quality. Not a masterpiece comparable to "Roots," "The Island," and "Bovary," but an album of high resonance, skillful and scurrilous.

Francesco Guccini Metropolis

Voto:

The epic and imperial Byzantium and the engaging Bologna are worth the entire album on their own. Reflective Venice and Lager (the latter not musically exciting). A nice nighttime skit in "Black-out." The others are decent.

Francesco Guccini Amerigo

Every time I listen to the title track, it instills in me a sense of reverence and pride towards the fathers who departed in search of greater dignity. A sincere and heartfelt tribute to all migrants, in the name of Uncle Enrico (Amerigo). On its own, it’s worth a 5, but I give a solid 4 for the overall album.

Finally, there’s a shift towards melodies that are more "in tune with the times." However, the traditional reflective and introspective pieces remain dominant, but the heavy atmospheres found in "Stanze di vita quotidiana" are not as noticeable.

I adore Guccini like other greats of the era, but this album is too dark, from the lyrics to the music. Sometimes it's a bit hard to listen to it all in one go. The genius finesse of the lyrics remains, but they often come across as too paranoid.

Wisely irreverent. It’s not strange at all, it’s just the other side of the coin of Guccini, a charming modern jester, who has expressed this trait in music. Moreover, as you can hear, it was recorded live as an unplugged session. The voices and the applause are not effects.

The highlight will be "Radici," but this extraordinary work has nothing to envy it. It conveys a fascinating sense of subtle melancholy throughout all the pieces.
