There is a great harmony between Dodi’s electric guitar and Tommy’s acoustic one: the two instruments converse, exchange lines, 'speak' the sublime language of music, with flawless virtuosity. The album was born [...] as a way of expressing through the union of a European musician and an Oceanian one, 'where the music has gone'.

A highly homogeneous record, with few openings towards other genres. An album that will break through on a commercial level, but from a strictly artistic and technical point of view, cannot be defined as its title.

Perfetto, Eros Ramazzotti's thirteenth studio album, showcases his trademark sentimental Italian pop style with little genre variation. The first two singles, blending country and classic Ramazzotti elements, stand out, but the rest of the album suffers from predictability and cliché lyrics. Collaborations with esteemed lyricists and American musicians contribute to a polished sound. Commercially likely to succeed, the album falls short artistically. Discover Eros Ramazzotti's Perfetto—listen to the standout tracks and see why it’s a commercial hit despite some predictability.
"Centocittà represents one of the best live performances of the Roman singer-songwriter." "Some tracks, already spine-chilling in the studio version, are even more highlighted here by the audience’s voices at the opening and closing of the tracks."

The much-touted turning point was only partial, but everything else remains unchanged and therefore predictable. "Ti amo inutilmente" is the parody of a parody of a song, a horrifying track that seriously makes one reflect on the mechanisms of our music.

Antonello Venditti's 'Tortuga' follows three years after 'Unica,' showing only partial change with new collaborators and a more classical feel. The album remains predictable, featuring recurring themes of Rome and love. Short song lengths limit musical breathing space, and one track notably disappoints with weak lyrics and style. Despite some strong moments, including heartfelt tributes and energetic songs, the album overall falls short of expectations. Discover the highs and lows of Antonello Venditti's Tortuga—listen and judge if it meets your expectations!
The film is truly sensational! Nothing more and nothing less than what was expected. The importance of compromise seems to be the underlying message of the film: one should neither be an average Italian nor too closed in anachronistic and hippy beliefs/conventions.

Unlike others, Carboni has not sold out and prefers to appear little but do it well. Melancholic and suggestive, like the cover, which portrays Luca with his son, a beautiful image.

Terrible commercial operation that has no purpose other than to fill the discographic gap between 'Dalla pelle al cuore' and 'Unica'. There is no effort by the record company to create a comprehensive project on Antonello's career, to make him known for what he truly was.

The review condemns 'Le donne' as a commercially driven compilation that fails to include key tracks Antonello Venditti truly dedicated to women. It criticizes the album's lack of artistic depth and imbalanced selection favoring later works. The reviewer laments the missed opportunity to reveal Venditti's more profound social commitment themes and calls the collection poorly executed. Explore the true depth of Antonello Venditti's music beyond this flawed compilation.
"Antonello proclaims 'The party begins!' and starts with the unmistakable drums of 'Eleonora,' a song of commitment about cocaine parties in rooms with politicians and 'respectable and cultured people who are never afraid of life.'" "Beautiful are the verses 'Dimmi cos’è, cos’è... that makes us friends even though we don’t know each other, tell me what it is that makes us feel united even if we’re far apart.'"

Circo Massimo is Antonello Venditti's first true live album, marking a pivotal moment in his career.

The truly most important part of the album are the transformed songs and the vocalizations with which Venditti slightly changes the pieces. A half-successful project, almost impromptu, that does not reach three stars and seems rather a way to fill the gap.
