Picking up on the brilliant idea of @[Martello], I take the liberty of making a sort of "tribute" to a great artist like Pino Daniele, that is, a ranking of his albums (stopping at Mascalzone Latino from 1989) from the worst to the best...
N°8: "Ferryboat" (1985)
Only a year passes, and here comes this new album of unreleased tracks. An album that contains a -for many- unwelcome novelty: Pino loses his superband, which had accompanied him from the second album until Sciò. Anyone who has followed Pino since his early days can't help but feel disappointed by this album. Don't get me wrong: there isn't a single track that can be defined as "bad" or "unlistenable," but there are perhaps 3, at most 4, songs that can match the GREAT Pino Daniele. The rest, yes, maintains levels that are adequate or just above, but still lesser compared to the immense works produced earlier.
Overall rating 6.5
The masterpiece of the album: Ferryboat (2017 Remaster)
