The Doors The Soft Parade

mahhh....agreeing with the lowest point and not any lower...well, highly criticized, it has gone down in history as a piece of junk....(which it is not...). I’ll just say one thing, provocatively: if only one of those many ultra-trendy youth groups that MTV imposes on us could manage to make an album like this...damn.

Fabrizio De André Fabrizio De André in concerto volume 1

Voto:

What can we say about the most beautiful live performance in the history of Italian music...? That it's impossible to review it perfectly... not bad, of course, but insisting a bit more on the music and atmospheres would have been appropriate... anyway, very good. Incredibly perfect album.

Paolo Conte Aguaplano

Alright, I’m the first to say that Conte is always at the highest levels (I’ve even written it in my reviews), but one cannot certainly argue that his inspiration is always a 10. If you know and love (but it couldn't be otherwise...) Paris and Un Gelato, you also know how he used to write back then...

Pino Daniele Iguana Café

Voto:

Sorry....with the utmost respect, but how old are you...? To find it decent as an ice cream...you can't be older than 25... With this, I repeat, the utmost respect, but I believe that only someone who hasn't experienced the best Pino directly can speak this way... Please, respond without insults, as my intention is not to offend.

Ligabue Nome e Cognome

what a pity...: these adolescent squabbles often ruin interesting discussions, leaving in their wake a useless nothing....

Bill Evans Live at Village Vanguard

Honestly, I adore BE so much that I can't rank them. Just like with Miles, Baker, or Jarrett, for me - incredibly biased without thinking - it's all gold, always. I join the chorus of those who couldn't care less about the distracted audience: Mr. E has gone down in history, the fifty idiots who were down there, probably not.

Paolo Conte Aguaplano

good and fair review. Personally, I believe Aguaplano is an explosion of creativity born from a golden moment, the one lived with the wonderful band that accompanied the Avv. in the first half of the eighties. However, if we get a bit more personal, I must say that the Count for me, in all its sublime and unreachable glory, is the one from the duo Paris Milonga and Un Gelato Al Limon...: for me, he has never written so well again (and I believe for him too...).

The Rolling Stones A Bigger Bang

Voto:

I agree, sweet neocon is indeed a bit cloying and ugly, undoubtedly the worst episode of the album. However, I don’t agree with those who bring up the criterion of utility…: when have genuinely useful records come out in the last 10-15 years…? It’s the criterion that is wrong…

Claudio Baglioni La vita è adesso

22 oct 05

Voto:

I am very attached to this album, so much so that I don't know if my judgment (which I find excellent in every way) is a reliable one. I was young, incredibly in love, on Vasco's side against the Baglioni fans in the group. Those holidays, with Cosa succede in città against La vita è adesso, were unforgettable...

Pink Floyd The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn

I conclude by reiterating my point of view, obviously with full respect for yours: for me, Pink Floyd means Waters and Gilmour. They have contributed to making music history much more than Syd. I might be sick... but, as they say... misery loves company, and this ailment afflicts many of us... Best regards.
