Francesco Guccini Radici
Voto:
Very detailed and precise review. I only own this album by Guccini and I can't say that I love it. The problem with this album and the others by the good Francesco is the lack of music. You say it too that the musical aspect seems secondary. Unfortunately for me, it has to be primary. I respect it, but I don't like it.

My goodness, it’s an album I haven’t listened to in ages (I have the vinyl). One of these days, I’ll listen to it all over again. It’ll take time and the right mindset. Indeed, it’s a very heavy and lengthy album. The third record, if memory serves me right, doesn’t say much at all. I much prefer London Calling; just the title track is worth a career. In one of the latest issues of Mucchio, there’s a photo of Mick Jones as he is today. Terrible! Joe Strummer is gone, and Mick in that condition is a real blow to the heart. I didn’t even mind Mick Jones in B.A.D. Today, he looks like he needs to be hospitalized.
Lucio Battisti Cosa Succederà Alla Ragazza
Voto:
To be completely honest, the last album by Battisti that I listened to was Don Giovanni. I've only heard about the subsequent works but listened to little or nothing. Now that I read this review and see 5/5, I feel like giving them a listen. However, it must be admitted that back when these records came out, who had the desire and the courage to approach them?
Lucio Battisti Don Giovanni
Voto:
Overrated and underrated at the same time. Great sounds, but let's be frank, the lyrics are pure nonsense. Panella genius, Panella madman, or whatever you want to call him, to me they are just tongue twisters. Good job, mind you, in finding the right verses and rhythms, but the meanings of these lyrics are truly incomprehensible unless someone is a genius like Panella.
David Bowie Scary Monsters
Voto:
I've never loved this album much. This comes from someone who grew up with David Bowie. Unrepeatable and unique are Hunky Dory, Ziggy Stardust, and Aladdin Sane. For me, the White Duke is all there. Oh my, the Berlin trilogy has had, and still has, its depth, but the Bowie I love is the one from the beginning, Ziggy Stardust.
Lucio Battisti Il Nostro Caro Angelo
Voto:
I wanted to tell Valerio Zappa that I checked my CD for the title of the incorrect song, and it indeed says "Prendi fra le mani la terra." I had never noticed that before. It's a curiosity, but it's rare to find an incorrect title on a record.
Franco Battiato Clic
Voto:
Of the experimental Battiato, I only own "Sulle Corde di Aries" and, unfortunately, I find it almost unbearable. I don’t intend to go further. I had a friend who went crazy for Henry Cow, but I could never stand them. Let’s put it this way: I’m not too fond of experimenters.
Everything But The Girl Walking Wounded
Voto:
I've never been too excited about EBTG. However, I recognize their value. Here, they wink at dance and Drum and Bass. When I bought it, I remember expecting a lot, and as always happens, you end up a little disappointed. I need to listen to it again. By the way, it’s a record that’s not easy to find, at least in stores.
Lucio Battisti Anima Latina
Voto:
The song format as we have always understood it is blown apart by the Battisti-Mogol duo. An album that nobody understood back then. Even today, it has many detractors simply because Battisti is now the icon of the three-minute song. Embrace it, embrace them, embrace them—it’s trip-hop in 1974. A masterful tailspin before the rebirth of Don Giovanni.
