If I remember correctly, this album features songs composed by Ligabue and performed by other artists like Negrita. The same A that is now a cover of a song by REM.

I would also add Zappa...

That one is different, it enters your soul. At the moment, it's one of the most imitated voices...

Say what you want, but to me Dolores' voice starts to get annoying after a couple of songs. She has a beautiful timbre, but it’s a bit like what I would say about Billy Corgan: they have irritating voices.

Well, I think that both PFM and Banco proposed rock long before '78. In reality, the phenomenon was far from being niche. People like Genesis and Emerson, Lake & Palmer had a true devotion to Italian prog rock, and even today, in interviews with some big foreign stars, whenever Italian music is mentioned, we always end up naming the likes of PFM, Banco, and Area. The problem is that the complexity of these bands' offerings rarely managed to reach the wider audience, in addition to their attitudes being distant from those typical of rockstars. Vasco Rossi, on the other hand, succeeded in this: simple and impactful songs combined with an image of a chronic addict that, let’s face it, feels very rock. An example could be put this way: there are those who read Novella 2000 and those who read Kafka; each one reads or listens to what they can understand.

What ruins your thinking, Francis, are the excesses: I agree on the nauseating exploitation of Morrison's image, but to go from there to emphasizing the little influence on future music and the superficiality of the proposal is quite a leap.

Exactly: andreabraido.com. Allow the popup and a window will open: three guitars for sale and three amplifiers.

Guys, not to advertise, but visit his site; he has a good amount of guitars and amplifiers for sale. Thanks for the great reviews.

They don't know him, they just used him solely to belittle Octavarium by Dream Theater.

Just look at Axl Rose's teased hair in the video Welcome to the Jungle to realize the subservience to Mike Monroe. Absolutely stunning the live All Those Wasted Years: definitely not to be listened to in the car, or you risk losing your license for speeding.
