THE REVIEW

1990. A new phase of revival for rock music begins. (Never too) old glories are once again signing significant recording contracts for comeback projects. Nomadi, Fossati, etc.

"La Forza dell'Amore" is born in this context. The first Italian rocker, after a profoundly uncertain decade, signed a contract with WEA for just one album. A reinterpretation of his most popular and beloved songs. For Finardi, it was perhaps the last chance to re-establish a wide-ranging connection with success. "Il Vento di Elora" from the previous year, despite being an album of rare intensity, did not reach a wide audience. Similarly, the previous works "Dolce Italia", "Colpi di Fulmine". Finardi pours his heart and soul into it.

The album would be a great sales success and would again bring Eugenio the success that seemed to have vanished since the dawn of the '80s. The album opens with the most beautiful version of Extraterrestre ever recorded. Powerful, rhythmic, impeccable, and at the same time ethereal and dreamy. It is followed by La Forza dell'Amore. A song that would immediately enter the hearts of new and old fans of the Milanese songwriter. Pure Italian rock. This is followed by a series of hits all recorded with surprising freshness. Le Ragazze di Osaka, Non è nel Cuore, Amore Diverso are just three titles that shine like precious gems on an incredibly beautiful album that doesn't tire even after the hundredth listen.

This album will be followed by a new album of unreleased tracks. Which will surprisingly manage to match the quality and beauty of "La Forza dell'Amore". Which, believe me, will surprise you.
