Album Notes & Community Reviews

Embracing American funk and disco rhythms, the acclaimed Italian cantautore pivoted towards a distinctly groove-oriented sound on this pivotal release. Working closely with lyricist Mogol, the songs maintain deep poetic sensibilities while utilizing tight horn sections and infectious basslines. The stylistic shift alienated some purists but ultimately proved Battisti's fearless adaptability to modern trends.
