Zucchero

In the middle of the stream, not among the greats but certainly not among the worst either. Overall, I have respect for his discography up to and including "Oro Incenso & Birra" from 1989; afterwards, aside from a few (rare) isolated gems, he started churning out blatant plagiarisms and shameless knock-offs mixed with truly dreadful tracks. To this day, he is utterly pitiful and unbearable.
