Paul McCartney Chaos And Creation In The Backyard

More than a month after the release, I confirm: great album, even greater because seemingly small.

I don't think this is Zucchero's best album, but it's a respectable one, certainly the result of a colonial reality (ours) that is better masked elsewhere. Zucchero is talented, and musicians like BB King and Clapton think so too. Blue, an album released much later, is however much better. As in other cases, the acrimony of many is driven by a sort of psychiatric envy for others' success...

I agree with the (very partial) exception for Medina, an album honestly superior to the recent average (and for this reason, quickly abandoned...). Anyway, the well has run dry for the entire singer-songwriter scene, a phenomenon that is unfortunately decidedly outdated...

Pink Floyd The Final Cut

maximum respect, total disagreement. Final Cut is, by everyone’s admission, a lesser offspring of The Wall (which I also prefer to the older sibling, mind you), and many consider it to be made up of compositional scraps...; but putting it above Dark or Wish is like placing Let It Be (where the Beatles were already effectively split and weren't writing a line together anymore) above Sgt. Pepper...meh...anyway, I repeat...: total respect, but I think that history will remember Dark and Wish, and, as the prince says, we are the history.

Guys, thanks for participating, and here’s my take: the album "che dio ti benedica," like practically all the others from the second (and mostly negative...) period, has at least a couple of nice tracks. Bonne Soiree is inferior to the first period, in my opinion, and in fact, I place it as the first album of the second. It's not a bad album, but it has copied, to say the least, vibes and arrangements from the rightly dominating (at that time) Tutu by Maestro Miles. I am also a huge fan of Pino, and I too throw him a heartfelt (and technical) appeal: dear Pino, have someone else write the lyrics for you, put aside the classical, and get back to playing a nice electric guitar, maybe a Gibson 335 or, more commonly, a Strat. You’ll see that a great album will come out, you’re still capable of it...

always ready for the gesture of peace… what irritates me is those people who, to quote Moretti that Punisher doesn’t understand…, with a seventies vibe, shoot out things that mean “but… there’s this whole underground movement of young people… you can’t understand…”… Well: if you’re not one of those who sneer at good things just because they’ve sold out… well… then let’s go, and we will, alright. For Caz (even though I promised myself not to give him any attention anymore…) I remind you that yours is the brain of someone who compares Dark Side to Bush, and I don’t think anything else can or should be added.

beautiful, as always. MK has an extremely high standard. Denying it is nonsense.
