I'm now abandoning, I think that in search of the lost chord is one of the worst 60's albums I've ever listened to, I'm sorry but it's indigestible, aged terribly. Perhaps the only thing worse is the New Hobbits album "Back from Middle earth" from '68... try to look it up and have a good laugh.

Well done, Odradek, you've stolen the words right from my keyboard, truly. Besides, I’m younger than Scaruffi, he must be over 40. I also go against institutions and don’t believe in any sacred monsters in music; it would make it hierarchical and classist anyway. But still, our friend, starting from excellent intellectual premises, fails miserably because he tries to make one of the many existing points of view about them universal. In the end, he too is an absolutist; what a pity.

what era would Giorgio have marked? That of the white boar? But why do you want to impose your limited and limiting views on the rock scene and be absolutists? Just say that for YOU they marked an era... if that's the case, that's fine, otherwise I'll refer to the comments in Chipdefeit's review.

And anyway, he has summed up well the typical easycure scaruffian point of view in another review (I honestly don't remember which one). That is to say, for Scaruffi (who is nonetheless a person with excellent musical culture), all it takes is a suite or an avant-garde freeform piece for the album to instantly become a masterpiece. Even though I love suites and freeform pieces, I don't judge an album based on whether or not it has such pieces. For example, regarding Love, dear Scaruffi makes a huge misstep in my opinion, considering Da Capo superior to Forever Changes just because of the 20-minute final piece!!! Which isn’t worth half a song from Forever Changes!! This is because Forever Changes uses string arrangements at certain moments. I too hate orchestrated songs, but we're perhaps discussing the only example of an album where such arrangements are PERFECT and never pedantic or baroque. Therefore, in my opinion, he suffers from a crisis (albeit a late one since our friend is over 40) of being alternative at all costs. Then, of course, he is free to express his opinions as much as he wants, just as we are free to criticize them. - And then, to criticize Scaruffi means also to criticize half of Ondarock, since many reviewers collaborate with Scaruffi, like Nunziata. Anyway, I don't endlessly praise the Beatles, in fact, I am very critical of them, but I am neither a revisionist nor alternative at all costs.

It is a fact that without the Beatles and the Kinks, American garage music of the time (not all of it, of course) would not have been born, or at least it would have been a phenomenon of lesser impact. I'm not making this up; it's said by: the singer of the Shadows Of Knight, Sky Saxon of the Seeds, Barry and the Remains (not coincidentally touring with them), and others. Regarding the Velvet Underground, I will just say that "I'll Be Your Mirror" has the same chord progression as a track from Beatles for Sale, that's all. This doesn't mean they were more or less important than the Velvets; it's just that having started earlier, they may have inspired them on some songs. I'm not saying they were more innovative; in my opinion, it's undeniable that the Velvets were light-years ahead in their conception of music, and like any avant-garde, they were understood much later. But the Beatles were the right band at the right time, whether one likes it or not, whether by luck or skill, but those are the facts. I would like to know where you read that Sgt. Pepper was influenced by Pet Sounds, considering that Wilson wanted to make an album like the Beatles. At most, the influence was from the Floyd, who were recording their first album in the same studio. Lennon admired Barrett, and vice versa, Barrett idolized Lennon. For the rest, I agree with Hal's comment about the prejudicial reading that is typically associated with Scaruffi.

Damn Claudio, tone it down a bit, and this is coming from a longtime Queen fan... I'm sorry because people who make these absolute statements only worsen the reputation of Queen fans. Absolutism doesn't exist; everything is relative, let's remember that.

I have always been a fan of the sacred office of the inquisition... what is the Vatican's current name for the inquisition? Wasn't it presided over by the German pastor (I mean Pope Ratzinger)? However, voodoo, like all folk beliefs, is interesting. I would take a little trip to New Orleans to talk to Baron Samedi.

Well, let's say that there were plenty of groups like this back in the '80s, so they don’t mean anything to me. Yes, my lip curls into a hesitant smile every now and then, but this stuff was being done in my area back in '86, so nothing new. I downloaded the puttanic, which I found excellent for double entendres and blasphemies, but terrible in terms of wit. I mean, I think they are so idiotic and so unaccustomed to a comedy that goes beyond the "padrepio does something to a child" type that they believe they’ve created a parody that actually makes you laugh and that is "intelligent." If that's the case, they are truly losers. Honestly, I don’t know why you wasted time reviewing it... and by the way, I’m not really in Elio's camp, too much for Lumbard especially recently. Better to stick with the Skiantos.
