THE REVIEW
The sense of the journey, a long journey...and I hate traveling. That's what hit me when, eagerly unwrapping the vinyl, I let it spin on the turntable. I confess, it caught me off guard.
I believe that with this record, good old Flavio risked a bright career, yet I like to imagine a sly smile on his face every time someone like me reminds him of this. It's thanks to this work that I can proudly declare to all those who don't know him: let me introduce you to the best Italian singer-songwriter. Yes, because a perfect record like "Il tuffatore" could happen by chance, but two...well, not two!
If I'm writing these few lines, it's only because on this beautiful site there is no mention of "Marco Polo" yet, and I'm not even going to talk about the individual tracks, a ship sailing the sea leaves no traces. I'll just say: listen to it, it will take you far...sail and sea

Like a clot of honey at the bottom of an herbal tea made with thistle, dandelion, and artichoke.
Better yet, like a date at the bottom of a bitter coffee.
