In '95, Carella returns with a surprising concept album, musically radiant and sugary, and textually sparkling. "Se non cantassi sarei nessuno" is the most ambitious and successful work of Carella's later discography, telling the tale of a modern Ulysses. It all begins with the powerful "Odissea," a choral pop piece that acts as a prologue to Ulysses' adventures, marked by an excellent and simple drum beat. There's a delightful and tropical pop song called "Solitudine vera," which could have had great radio success, as well as the subsequent "Cara al cuore," a rather intriguing funky track. Two slightly more challenging songs follow, namely the Battiato-esque "Parti nude" and the energetic "Capebomma," both of which have their place in the album's economy. Opening the second part are "Solo cielo e mare," a lengthy piece where Ulysses encounters the sirens, and "Tiempe croce doce," which is almost hard rock where, in essence, all the suitors are mercilessly slaughtered. The surprise comes with the eighth track, "My baby is back": a tear-jerking pop ballad where Ulysses reunites with his beloved. The album concludes with the already-released singles "La miseria" and "Partire," which feel a bit like bonus tracks but are of excellent quality. With this album, Carella had the chance to restart like in the past and consistently produce high-level albums. Unfortunately, it didn't happen that way, and Carella wasn't heard from for a long time (again).

George Benson - Love X Love (Live Montreux 1986) It's not on the level of Bad Benson or Body Talk from the jazz phase, it has clear commercial intentions (which is not necessarily a bad thing), but in its genre, it's a great album, especially considering how disco has deteriorated today, even elegant if we want. Then, in my opinion, Benson can make even the neighbor's crap enjoyable for two reasons: He is an absurd performer, he has an illegal voice (just watch the live with Pavarotti, divine), meaning when you hear some of his stuff, a part of you says, "No, but it's commercial," while the other part just wants to groove madly.

Claudio Baglioni - E noi due là (Videoclip) For the "shitty album series (as Baglioni had us accustomed to in the '70s and since 2000) with a song barely inspired, it always talks about the same themes but with different nuances, let's say. As for the album, I won’t comment because it’s truly unjudgable (Baglioni isn’t one for long playing), but for those who can handle it, there are terrifying flashes of class.
