Album Notes & Community Reviews

With his signature gravelly voice and sophisticated piano arrangements, the legendary Italian cantautore delivers a sprawling double album exploring eclectic, global rhythms. 'Aguaplano' weaves elements of tropicalia and cabaret into a smoky jazz-pop framework, accompanied by poetic, enigmatic storytelling. The work beautifully encapsulates the romantic and melancholic charm that defines his distinctive European songcraft.
