5th place: Samuele Bersani
There are cases in the music world where a debuting singer can achieve a shocking level of artistic growth within just a few years: for instance, Dalla, after a few years of struggle and two not particularly remarkable albums, managed to birth Storie di casa mia; Battisti went from Una giornata uggiosa and E già to the masterpiece Don Giovanni in just 6 years; Battiato produced L'era del cinghiale bianco in less than a year after L'Egitto prima delle sabbie, and so forth. The same happened with Samuele: after the very honest Freak, three years passed before a new album, and what an album it is! Finally, Samuele breaks free from the established norms and expresses himself in a creative and volcanic way. Just listen to the story of a homosexual love in Braccio di ferro, the adventure in a museum in Crazy boy, the friendship that will never fade in Coccodrilli, the search for a girl in Tonight, the desperate loneliness of Coppa Uefa, and L'istinto... it almost feels like we're not even talking about the same singer from a few years prior. Naturally, the album isn’t perfect; there are some less impactful moments and others that are quite lackluster (La risposta, with lyrics written by Dalla that seem almost like a way to repay the lyrics of Canzone), but nonetheless, the album remains largely unscathed. It is Samuele’s first masterstroke, but like Nuvola numero 9, it lacks a standout track that makes you think, “this is the masterpiece of the album”… right? You all know which track I'm talking about: the most famous one by Bersani, the one that forever solidified his place in the Olympus of singer-songwriters, the jewel of this third album, none other than... Giudizi universali. It's pointless to explain this song in words; it’s simply an absolute milestone that definitely gives an extra edge to the entire album. Without that track, this self-titled album would be decidedly less memorable and elegant.
Meticulous rating: 8½
I think it’s unnecessary to mention which is the gem.

The Young Rascals - Groovin' (Live on Ed Sullivan)

#edsullianshow

From 1948 to 1971, every Sunday night Ed Sullivan hosted the greatest and most famous artists on his show, broadcast on CBS. About ten years ago, it was released again in 12 DVDs, and an Italian newspaper published the best performances. I'm sharing them again; there are truly wonderful things.

#1 Soul Brother

"I take seven ill drums, put 'em in a line
And add seven more snares to make it combine
It'll take seven horns before I start my rhyme
Now it's twenty-one beats made up at the same time"

Simply number one.
