Joe Cocker Hymn For My Soul

Punisher...: a comment not worthy of you. You have to immerse yourself: immerse yourself in the era, in the hippie spirit, and so on; if you evaluate it by today’s standards, you’ll miss the mark completely. I didn’t even know this had come out. I’m rushing to download it (legally?).

"they will do..." ...? Dearest Sfascia, these people are already convinced they are god... A phenomenon vastly overrated and barely decent for elevator backgrounds, fashion shows, and tiny shows... Oh well... oh well... and yet again oh well...

I'll give my opinion: the second one is the best, the third one is slightly better, and the fourth one is definitely worse where (to quote) the opposite of King Midas participates: everything he touches turns to shit. Who? Asia... our national Asia...

Premiata Forneria Marconi Live in Japan 2002

The album is beautiful (at least, in my opinion...) and, perhaps, without offense, it could have deserved a few more lines, except I would advise the editorial team to distinguish between "reviews" and "notices" as is already done elsewhere. Oh well... (a free jab at Vasco: it’s a bit like saying that Parmesan should be ashamed, that the real cheese is Castelmagno... sigh...)

thank you: high rating for the review and low for the album is, I believe, the best compliment possible. Thank you, salùt (primiballi.blogspot.com)

Yes...dear three readers...I believe I have achieved an absolute record (and certainly a personal one) of inattention...the previous review was "bollicine" by Vasco...and there, as always, everyone falls for it...). Anyway, thanks to you, wonderful three!

George Lucas Guerre Stellari

@gnoato: I personally find this (at the very least) more shareable than Poletti's, which, it seems according to the current constitution, couldn't have a follow-up... However, the fact that the film is the manifesto of (more than) one generation is something that cannot be disputed except with foolish arguments (like the music of Vasco Rossi, whether one likes it or not). Then, regarding the film itself, everyone can and should draw their own conclusions. For me, it is an epoch-making film, extremely important albeit not very beautiful, both in terms of its execution and especially in its acting (which was atrocious, even by the standards of the time). But, I repeat, it is a film of utmost importance, and denying that is true foolishness.

It's interesting to consider the hypothesis of a "rebirth" of Italian pop music. So let's start from a shared premise: that it has died. Well then: will it be reborn...? That's a pretty tough question. Next, I would warn against all those who speak a priori badly of everyone who has sold a few records...: it's a rare occurrence, I admit, but sometimes records sell because they are good... otherwise, we would find talented singer-songwriters in an inversely proportional relationship to their sales, up to the extremely talented one, with 1000 songs stuck in a drawer, who doesn't publish (and who often is the one writing the posts under false pretenses, as a misunderstood genius...). Ah... and thanks to those who appreciate my writing, it's always very nice to hear.

I'm not saying that the new trilogy is bad... but if in '77 Lucas was way ahead of his time, now he isn't anymore, and he's produced a well-crafted and average work, but it's far from a masterpiece (with, at least in my opinion, a completely wrong protagonist).
