Continuing the brilliant idea of @[Martello], I take the liberty of making a kind of "tribute" to a great artist like Antonello Venditti, specifically a ranking of his albums (stopping at Cuore from 1984 and including Theorius Campus with De Gregori) from least to most beautiful...
No. 9: "Buona Domenica" (1979)
The eighth studio album by Antonello, released at the end of the '70s. The only two main flaws are these: it comes after "Pesci" — although, in the end, it's not that inferior — and there are a few too many diversions (Mezzanotte, Kriminal, title-track...). Fortunately, the rest manages to keep pace remarkably well: four excellent tracks and one piece that could be defined as "absolute masterpiece" is almost an understatement. Seven minutes and 49 seconds of anger, disappointment, hope, and lament for the end of an era, spiced up with a beautiful sax solo by the great Gato Barbieri.
Overall rating 7.5
The masterpiece of the album: Modena
