Fossati De André De Gregori - Questi posti davanti al mare

Very beautiful. De Andrè manages not to ruin everything, despite being overshadowed by the two giants next to him.

Ultimo Reparto - Ich Liebe Dich

Who defended Berlin until the end? 300 French volunteers. Among the greatest heroes of all time, they held off 2,600,000 savage Bolsheviks for days and days. Defeated in the external conflict, the lions of Berlin won the great holy war.

Rush - The Pass (HQ)

The first album we bought, on vinyl, in a little shop in Torpignattara. It was 1989: we were 13 years old. All things considered, "things that are dark tend toward clarity."

Bohren & der Club of Gore - Nightwolf

Sublime. A microgenre where absolute otherness excels: but the Teutonic whites in question rectify the telluric dystopias, transmuting the black syncopations into Apollonian standards.

Simple Minds Someone Somewhere in Summertime 1982

What an extraordinary piece... In four and a half minutes, the '80s: two years before they ended, in 1984.

Giuseppe Povia - Il bambini fanno ooh!

If it’s true that the most beautiful songs are those not written, now and then an exception emerges, straight from the realm of archetypes. And goodnight to that tramp Robert Wyatt.

John Waite - Masterpiece Of Loneliness (HQ)

An English Tenco (Americanized): the fragile yet steadfast voice in the assertiveness of a coherent anti-mainstream journey reminds us of certain beach games popular in the '80s: the memory fades into the indistinct magma of the human condition. Days go by, nights are eternal moments.

Eluvium - Seeing You at the Edges

Metaphysical, yet with a subtle vein of anxiety that is characteristic of the land of the setting sun. Influenced by Badalamenti from Twin Peaks, without being derivative. Epic and intimate, in the best sense of the terms. To be listened to after a binge of black label and Nesquik, in Romagna at the end of summer, under the blinding lights of a crumbling roadside diner.

The Storm - Can't live without love [lyrics]

It seems that there was a discussion about ballads elsewhere recently. Here you go, gentlemen, you who have celebrated the Assumption (Dormition for those who are Orthodox), a slow tune from a thousand and one nights: or perhaps, from the late hours of the night. Chalfant at times sounds like Joe Cocker; the riffing is electrifying, the verse overwhelming, the arrangement well-rounded, and the odd-time drumming hints at earthy origins, while the bridge and the solo are chillingly pure.
Play it for your beloved: your love will never end, blessed by the priests of AOR.

Michael Bolton - Desperate Heart (1985)

A stellar M. Bolton long before the Christmas songs. An empty room, the night is advanced: it’s all over, the shadows become romantic and hollow bodies, she knows not where. A broken heart is what remains, imperishable, in the deep sea of time.
