So... I found this thing on YouTube, this guy who "sings" "A portata di mano" by Battisti accompanied only by the piano. I wanted to post it because it deserves some credit, managing in some way to convey the extraordinary and incredibly complex beauty of the harmonic progressions of Battisti's later works, which were hidden beneath the obsessive techno-rhythms of his last "hyper-songs." I remember when the first white album was released, many said it was inspired by Battiato, precisely because of the electronics it contained. No one had it right, no one had truly managed to hear what was inside. Gilberto - A portata di mano (cover di Lucio Battisti)
