But is it included in the tracklist... or am I wrong? An impromptu single a year earlier? Wow...!

Okay, I heard at least the single "If you don't get what you want"... at first impression, it seems like a single, indeed :) I'm waiting for the "signed and timely" review... :D

But am I the only one who didn't listen to it? Ugh... :(
Lucio Dalla Com'è profondo il mare
Voto:
(...) from "Organized Travels" changes the tone, although there are still some interesting finds (just think of "Washington," "Ribot," the unknown track from "Lies" of '86, and of course "Caruso," let's not forget about it...), then with "Cambio" at least a couple of beautiful pieces: "Bella," and above all "Le Rondini," I don't know if you know it, Grass, but it's a piece of disarming beauty. In "Henna," let's not forget "Latin Lover," another poignant romance. In short, it's true that Dalla has become more restrained, yet from time to time he has scattered a few sparks. And the beginning of the end, in my opinion, started in '84. Bye

Interesting, Grass, but I would like to share my thoughts. You’ve perfectly framed it; I think those are great records, but I want to say that "1983" isn't bad either. It is certainly less immediate than the previous ones, but that doesn’t mean it marks the beginning of mediocrity; on the contrary, it is very profound in its dignified pessimism, and musically, it’s not bad, with still good performances by Stadio. I mention "L'Altra parte del mondo," "1983," "Solo," just to name a few, pieces with such boundless bitterness that manifest in lines like "Solo come un' armonica a bocca senza bocca, un bacio caduto per terra... ero più solo quando c'eri anche tu però una cosa mi manca" and "Ma qualcosa ci manca e quel qualcosa ci stanca, ci stanca avere tutte queste cose che ci mancano se non le abbiamo più; incontri la gente e si annoia è una congiura, poi li vedi come vivono in fretta forse la noia è soltanto paura"... dark atmospheres and beautiful performances by Stadio in "Noi come Voi" and others. Since '84, I believe everything changes. It’s a Dalla changing genre because the collaborations change: Stadio goes independent, and he completely changes his crew; (...)

Oh, Trell, you couldn't resist either and you flipped through it early... :)

Well, it's not certain that I trust you. But this time the review is measured, come on. Of course, someone who's an idiot is an idiot all year round, right? But it could be that one day it doesn't show. And I'm not saying that you're an idiot. Re-vote :)

Come on, man, this time it’s fine, come on, come on... sorry, nowadays they let politicians off for anything due to statute of limitations, and you’re still asking for accountability on buried issues... Good job, Francis :)
Francesco De Gregori De Gregori
Voto:
Hey there, Grass, hi :) Well, maybe you’re right, after all the modern de Gregori is certainly not garbage; he still does interesting work. But as I said, he no longer has that "deeply amazed soul from thirty years ago, that fairytale wonder of living that could take shape in a little tragedy like 'Babbo in prigione'", and as a devotee of the Francesco of that era, I feel a bit betrayed by this Francesco... bye bye.

This one is a bit more colorful... :) Two reviews of the same album on the same day? Anonymous, revealed
