Rino Gaetano Escluso il cane

2 nov 06

Voto:

I discovered 'Chi mi dice ti amo' on Notturno Italiano in the summer of 1992.
After that, I didn't hear it on any other station.
Rino is overrated today, that might be true, but it doesn’t seem like it to me; we’re not overwhelmed by his songs, not at all... he’s not Battisti, who is starting to be felt a little less.
Overrated in his time... it seems like nonsense to me...
But when an artist is too overrated, they then go boom and disappear suddenly.
Rino Gaetano, after his death, seems to me to have been justly rediscovered, but I really can't see people going wild for him...

Cesare Cremonini Bagus

But sure... after rivers of Area, Banco DMS, Creedence, at a certain hour of the night, before turning off the light and going to sleep, a serene Gongi Boy by Cremonini can also be fitting.
Good Night.

Creedence Clearwater Revival Pendulum (1970)

Voto:

Discovered in 1990 (my uncle's cassette of Pendulum, secretly borrowed), they have never gone out of style. Just because they aren't exceptional, but still... fantastic. 'Have You Ever Seen The Rain?' is certainly the best, but I also love 'It's Just A Thought.' And those faces on the cover, bearded, mustached (especially the drummer), have always been likable to me...

Carmen Consoli Eva Contro Eva

Voto:

No, I'm not kidding: I was recording Sanremo for work reasons with a TV cable, but I kept the volume extremely low out of pure bias, when I heard 'Sai benissimo...' which I understood as 'Sei bellissimououuou': I thought: '-After the blind Minetti, there's the disabled singer,' I went to see and it was her, Consoli... the only thing that struck me, insensitively, were the black leather pants with her nice little round butt, because she was singing standing up but bent at 90 degrees as if she were grabbing it in the ass...

Riccardo Cocciante Concerto Per Margherita

A review is expected on MU, one of the most overlooked (unjustly) Italian albums...

Ivan Cattaneo Duemila60 Italian Graffiati

The 'frocione', the 'Frociaccio', and down with the tavern insults, I liked it.
As for Camerini, joy is not a crime.
Camerini, however, was better...

Luca Carboni Carboni

Voto:

Usually, if a singer or a band doesn't sit well with me, I don't lash out (I find it downright silly). For Luca Carboni, I make an exception. My sister used to drive me and everyone else in the house crazy with awful songs by: Nino D'Angelo (it was the mid-'80s), Claudio Baglioni (some nice, others made me feel sick), the CCCP (but they were 'strange' and for that reason I didn't hate them), Bruce Springsteen (oh my God...), but above all Luca Carboni. I remember that ''bambolina' or 'scimmiottina' or whatever the hell it was, repeated for months and months... it was a nightmare. The worst musical nightmares of the talented Jumbo couldn't compete with Luca Carboni. Then in the '90s he took a different direction and some of his songs, after eliminating the honey-carrying TIR from the grooves, I ended up liking them.

Alberto Camerini Rockmantico

I had the Casio mini keyboard too, actually two of them! The first one I bought back in June 1983 was really small but it was a gem. It had chords, made crazy sounds, and cost around 100,000 lire... Then I got another one three years later, but it was a bit of a dud, even though it had two or three octaves. If I’m not mistaken, the Righeira sang 'Vamos a la playa' on TV in 1983 using a Casio. 'Tanz Bambolina' isn’t exactly to be discarded, but compared to the works of the '70s, it’s just more 'commercial', easier to digest. I've heard talk of the 'Area' disturbed by the assaults of autonomists and omosedduali, and given the kind of music that is overly 'heavy' (in a good way), one can understand... but that the gay community would attack Tanz Bambolina when we were already in the '80s (even if just barely)...

Alberto Camerini Cenerentola e il pane quotidiano

31 oct 06

Voto:

'Comici Cosmetici' and even more 'Gelato Metropolitano' (just a few songs) transport me back to a particular and sweet time of my youth, which is why I insist on his albums and those six songs. 'Pane Quotidiano', a multifaceted LP but always on the wings of dreams, on the eternal Robin Hood that is Camerini. High marks for the album because 'A me mi piace'. To the reviewer, because if there are those who review Camerini's early days, it means that there are still people around who listen to good music. These are songs that I loved immensely but then forgot, like one forgets good flavors that, if one has the fortune to taste them again, unleash memories thought to be lost.

Franco Battiato Orizzonti Perduti

Primiballi, technology keeps advancing but the content gets worse and worse. If only you knew how I miss the '70s black-and-white TV and the great things that were on it. The same goes for music. Perhaps the excessive supply is clouding our judgment, but if this is the offer... Click... just like Battiato!!!
