Bill Frisell, Thomas Morgan: Small Town

Read "Small Town" reviewed by Luca Canini


A certi dischi non si può far altro che arrendersi. C'è poco da raccontare, da spiegare. Li si ascolta e li si ama: punto. Senza porre condizioni o veti, senza affannarsi a cercare giustificazioni. Quello che c'è da sapere è tutto lì. E arriva dritto e preciso alla testa e al cuore. Dritto, ...
