LA RECENSIONE

Italian music is reborn with a memorable album by Fabrizio De André, all thanks to Morgan, who with great interpretative skills has managed to revive this masterpiece of the great Faber. I am listening to it right now as I write these lines, and I must say that the quality of this work is impeccable, at least as much as the original. The arrangements and the fidelity of execution are also excellent. In a few words, an excellent work, in the name of Faber whose memory will always remain in the soundtrack of our lives. A great initiative that keeps him alive, especially for the new generations, who perhaps with this reinterpretation will come to know Fabrizio De André, and maybe start listening to him, just as I did when in 1996 (alas... too late, I know) I bought "Anime Salve"... that's where I started listening to him more and more and began buying all the albums, and I assure you that "knowing" De André is a wonderful adventure. An adventure in the world of good music, poetic lyrics, and many ideals representing the world of Faber, the singer-songwriter of singer-songwriters, the poet who left this world too soon, a world that needs him so much.

Morgan has once again managed to stand out, in a musical world where we see too many artists born without ideas who go on just for their looks; he stands out because he is a good artist, because he managed to do something that no one else would have done. Already in the album "Le canzoni dell'appartamento" he managed to revisit a beautiful song by Gaber: "Non arrossire" and now he has truly hit the mark. In these lines, I don't want to review the album, also because I don't think I'm capable of doing it, given the greatness of the work, but I wanted to express my opinion on an initiative that deserves the most sincere applause from a simple lover of good music. The same applause goes to the De André Foundation. In conclusion, I would already give him the "Tenco Award"... it would be a WELL-DESERVED award.

 If the clone (or cover-album) is so similar to the original, I must be a true fanatic of the genre to pay a total of 17 euros for such a product.

 Beautiful, very beautiful, but only because the original is beautiful, very beautiful.


By Ghemison

 Morgan becomes a delicate psychedelic interpreter with perfect and light reinterpretations full of emotional engagement.

 The album is worthy, daring, often innovative, though sometimes more interesting for the artist than the audience.


By Ginger Drummer

 Morgan once again proves to be a gifted musician as well as a great interpreter.

 An album of crystalline beauty, made even more wonderful by the work on the sounds performed by the Milanese musician.
