Timeless singer-songwriter, humble man, stubborn, consistent and not bowed down by the lightning-fast changes imposed by the market. Comfortably forgotten and several years after his passing, finally recognized by the entire world for that splendid unknown piece ("Nelle mie notti" - 1974 Sergio Endrigo - Nelle mie notti cleverly used under other guises twenty years later, to dress the lyrics of a famous film and consecrated with an Oscar, unfortunately now posthumous. Huge!
