"Poor" Max, if he read that Mucchio is pure nonsense. It may be pure nonsense, but it has been going strong for 28 years, doing work he loves and immersing himself in it (and feeling it) while also making a good living. And it's pretty cool too.

Blessed Jim Morrison who has the girl that listens to the Cure. I, girls like that, have never found. At most, we could only get to Claudio Baglioni...

To be honest, I don't find this album that great. I don't even think the other works by GG are really remarkable. However, the cover used is legendary, not by chance, by the Giunti publishing house for the "progressive" booklet released a few years ago. Those who hate progressive music (and there are many) point to GG alongside EL&P as harmful examples of the era. Mucchio Selvaggio docet.

Apart from the title track, the album is quite raw. These are the first steps of Ziggy Stardust. The cover depicted here is that of the 1973 reissue (or thereabouts), while the one currently circulating on CD is the original cover from 1969, although to be honest, it is pretty similar. News reported by "Bogusman" under "The man who sold the world". It’s worth clarifying.

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers Into The Great Wide Open

Tom Petty is great and he's part of the "losers" group, which makes him even more likable to me. He has never produced a masterpiece, but he has released many excellent albums. This is one of many. Plus, he has that American nasally singing style that I absolutely love. You could say he's like a poor man's Bob Dylan/Bruce Springsteen. Recently, I’ve lost track of him.

Giov, you're right, there's nothing to say, but I like to go around the stores and also experience human contact, exchange a few words, feel the "cold" records firsthand, and see what they have in this store and that store. Then, inevitably, I have to buy some records online because they can only be found there. And it's okay if sometimes the price to pay is a bit higher. I grew up in record stores, and I don’t even mind getting older there. But maybe this is a poem all my own.

P.I.L. That What Is Not

I share the review. Aside from the punk beginnings, both of the Sex Pistols and the subsequent P.I.L., I find the album from 1986 titled simply Album (or CD for the digital format or cassette for the cassette) quite interesting. But even the immediately following works of P.I.L. are not bad. I think this is the worst; in fact, I believe it remains the last one they've made to this day. I've never understood whether Johnny Rotten was genuine or just playing a part. In my opinion, he was just acting.

I enjoyed Love Is Here, the title track is memorable. Silence Is Easy, after reading bad reviews everywhere and hearing a couple of tracks, I didn't buy it, and unfortunately, this one isn't receiving any praise either. I'm sorry because, as I said, I still listen to their debut occasionally. I'm among those who believe that 20 euros is not a little amount, and before spending it, I think about it ten times, especially considering that so many titles from the past can be found for 10 euros.

Good album along the lines of the previous two works. It's a genre that sounds a bit the same all over. The TC albums could be interchanged without anyone noticing. However, I don’t mind them. Better this chill-out than the current rock whine of the Boss. It sounds just right in the car. Sometimes you need this too.

Pink Floyd The Final Cut

Vinyl purchased at the end of the eighties. Listened to a couple of times and given to my neighbor. Yet I like "Wish..." and "Dark...", but also "The Wall".
