Album Notes & Community Reviews

Collaborating once again with the visionary Franco Battiato, the acclaimed Italian vocalist crafted a sophisticated, highly successful blend of modern pop and traditional songwriting. 'Azimut' perfectly frames Alice's distinctive, powerful voice within sleek, synthesizer-laced new wave arrangements and deeply poetic lyricism. The record famously includes the hit 'Messaggio', cementing her status as a premier fixture of 1980s Italian pop.
