a bit raw.
It doesn't affect the intention to listen in any way, neither positively nor negatively.
"Useless," I would dare say.

We all have a blues to cry.
And some of us even have a review.
Congratulations.

The work is dear to me.
And I share part of the colors of the review.
But I shy away from bombastic statements and platitudes.
A few examples.
-"This album, which alone is worth more than a hundred Roberto Vecchioni"
(let's not be ridiculous)
-"he is the only singer-songwriter who has managed to create poetry with a thirty-second solo"
(are you sure about that?)
-"the boom of progressive rock that happened back then, so appealing from an aesthetic point of view but so repulsive in terms of content"
(in this case, I have the impression that you don’t know what you’re talking about)
What a pity. Because the flaws are all elsewhere, not in what you write about Graziani or Pigro.
Better to be discreet, in life as at the point of death.

It's not as unpleasant as you say. The review, I mean. Let's say that a review like this helps me enough; which is what a review is supposed to do, after all. After that, without influencing the evaluation, I point out an inconsistency to the reviewer. On one hand (here) I am told, "The great poet is the one who explains nothing, who does not argue, but simply narrates the inner and outer reality that conditions and torments him." I agree. On the other hand (Il mio canto libero, which he also tried to disqualify), I am told, "ok, and so? What emotions? Can you explain it to me in other words or not? No." Implying that it is about contrived and/or unresolved verses. So, paraphrasing someone and thinking more about that review than this one, when something notoriously difficult seems easy to you, perhaps it's simply because you're not ready yet.

There’s something true, a hint of “eh…” in this review.
But yes, perhaps one should have a few more years and a few more emotions before reviewing Mogol Battisti.

Yes, that's true.
However, this is not a review of the book.

I haven't read and I won't read the book.
So one of the goals of a review is achieved: to prevent me from wasting time reading something that - if I did - in the end I would ask myself, "what the hell made me do that?"
Just one, though.
ALL the other goals of a review seem to me to have failed.
Because reviewing is neither similar to nor related to "taking a position."

interesting.
I proceed.

Yes,
they studied at the school of the Orme.
Also some King Crimson (especially the rhythm section) and Genesis, the guitars.
But...
it's all a bit déjà vu, isn't it?
I mean, there aren't many ideas.
Even the suite could have been a bit more ambitious... it could have dared more.
Anyway, thanks to them for trying to recover and defend certain sounds, certain syncopated rhythms.
And thanks to you for letting me listen to them.

I give you 5 stars despite what you say about Cirrus Minor and Nile Song. You forgot to mention Chapter 24, though. Ah, it’s not there? Well, it could have been...
