Lucio Battisti E Già

Let’s be clear, I don't consider E già a masterpiece, but a "necessary" album in every sense within his discography. A clean slate (out with pop arrangements, out with "dense" lyrics, out with the authority of the singer-songwriter) before all that we know so well. ...However, I still believe that if E già had been made with fewer songs and by developing more those on the first side, it would have been an excellent piece of work, still transitional.

Ah.. personal opinions are now called "corrections"?

I apologize; I copied a printed interview, so without any digital cut and paste, and I ended up with an extra "thought."

Again, Greg Walsh: "It's a record that highlights his awareness of being a musician, his joy in writing songs and singing them: it's a very happy album, if you listen to it closely (...). I regret that PEOPLE DID NOT UNDERSTAND THIS, because they thought that from that moment on everyone believed that Battisti had lost his mind, that he had gone into an inaccessible world, BECAUSE HE NO LONGER MADE THE MUSIC THAT PEOPLE WANTED, but made the music he wanted to make. Of all the albums by Battisti that I know, this is one of the most sincere, most authentic, the one that goes deepest into his soul."

Greg Walsh: "maybe (and already) it was his revenge against the super production of the albums made with Westley (...) No one has ever really understood this album, but for me it’s one of the best he’s ever made, and I think it’s the same for Lucio; he is very attached to this album because it’s very personal. (...) In the previous two albums, he is effectively a singer, a songwriter. From this moment on, he becomes almost a music designer."

I didn't say I find it inferior. Less seductive, that’s for sure. You know, my roots are ultimately in the new wave and not in (rhythm &) blues; as unresolved as it is, E already spoke a language that was definitely closer to me than AENA... The whips? I will savor them with delight one by one...

Well, yes, there's a lot missing on DBRS... but, biaspoint, why this and not The Scream?

With Siouxsie, I thought I had settled my score with Juju (or rather with the live Nocturne)... Then I realized late that Hyaena wasn't so bad after all, despite those who had written it off in the mid-80s. Just watch, after such a passionate review, I might have to revisit this as well...

Um... how many lashes do I deserve if I say I've never really loved this album? I've listened to it maybe 5 times at most... I don't know, maybe the fact that I've always seen it as a parenthesis in Battisti's production has made me listen to it with one ear in and the other out... Anyway, well done Ringo, the review is quite praiseworthy.

I agree on the Litter; Action Woman is immense and the whole album doesn’t hold up. I miss El Prunes just as much as Tomorrow. …Did Status Quo produce anything decent??????
