Quella stilistica, per esempio, al di là dell'eterogeneità del materiale riunito in questo album (Bellini e “Tintarella di luna" sono--e rimangono--piuttosto lontani, per fare un solo esempio). Il primo trittico di brani, in effetti, rappresenta già un bel caleidoscopio ...

Il meglio del 2016 secondo Luca Vitali

Read "Il meglio del 2016 secondo Luca Vitali" reviewed by Luca Vitali
