LA RECENSIONE
Today I want to talk to you about a very beautiful album released in 1981, called "BUONA FORTUNA".
The Pooh worked hard on this project with the help of American sound engineers, who had already collaborated with major artists like Pink Floyd, Duran Duran, etc., etc.
In my opinion, this is the best Pooh album or at least one of the best. In the '70s, the Pooh produced prog-pop-symphonic albums and stamped those years with that music genre. However, here we listen to an album that ranges between rock and pop, never banal, never predictable. Songs flow lightly, with wonderful ballads marking the time of this album. Noteworthy songs include: BUONA FORTUNA, DOVE STO DOMANI, LASCIA CHE SIA, COMPLEANNO DI MAGGIO, and FOTOGRAFIE.
I believe these show the Pooh at their peak of maturity, as after this album there is a noticeable decline. Still maintaining the highest levels, this album stands between the prog Pooh and the pop Pooh... certainly, this album lands on my personal podium... it’s definitely among the all-time top three of the Pooh. A word to listeners, don’t let the unfortunate prejudices about this band deter you, but listen with the heart and the desire to discover the soul of this group (the best ever in Italy for various reasons).
Negative aspects: none
Positive aspects: an album for those who love good music played and created with heart and soul

The Pooh have made Music.
I would answer like this - listen; with good headphones. Good stereo. And good subwoofer. Then we will talk again.
