Not to be polemical, but it’s a delayed wisdom. Better than nothing, mind you. They must have been forced to reread quite a few '80s issues of the much maligned "Rockstar," the one by Sisti, Vigorito, Tondelli, and Alberto Campo; or perhaps go over the reviews of the "sectarian" De Dominicis in "Velvet." Anyway, I’ll buy it, just to see how they handle the Prefab. :-)

Marvin Gaye What's Going On

We hope, instead, that those from "La Repubblica" won't take offense ("XL" has, by the way, deteriorated significantly compared to the free insert "Musica!") and those from the "Corriere"... thank you and listen to it all.

I still need to buy Mucchio, which has become expensive, and because of this I purchase it very sporadically. I'm pleased about Matthews' presence, but especially the fact that, finally, with timing reminiscent of the Holy Office, they've decided to "clear" pop. Many "Mucchio fans" looked at me with condescension when I proposed equal dignity among genres and talked to them about bands like Prefab Sprout. About twenty years later, I take these small satisfactions. Thank you for the tip.

Odras, thanks for the link, but that wasn't why I pointed out the review to you; I was hoping, more than anything, for your comment. P.S. I believe it’s "ti ricordi?" in Swedish, but I'm not an expert; I must have read it in some magazine a little while ago.

Elliott Smith Xo

Maybe it's my favorite Elliott album. When I first listened to "Waltz #2," I was moved.

Lowell George Thanks I'll Eat It Here

I enjoy Little Feat, but I’m ignoring this solo album by George. From the description you give, I should like it quite a bit.

I confess that for me their, in hindsight, sacred dissolution was such a trauma that I’ve always avoided the solo albums of Hart and the others. After all these years, it might be time to give them a listen. P.S. Do you remember that I also wrote something about them? ;-)
