 Il colore dei pensieri represents one of the band’s least known and most overrated albums.

 An album too much a child of a decade which, even with other artists, saw a significant decline compared to the glories of the previous decade.

Despite this, some tracks like Santa Lucia and Dall'altra parte stand out with meaningful lyrics and nostalgic tones. The album marks a technological step forward with Direct Metal Mastering but overall does not reach the quality of their earlier successes. It remains a product deeply tied to its era, with a mixed legacy. Discover the hidden gems and nostalgic tales within Pooh's Il colore dei pensieri—listen now and explore the band's evolving sound!
