The last song from BATTIATO

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

It's now offical. Sadly one of the most brilliant minds of the Italian music scene is gone with the Alzheimer.
A new album of remastered track including one new song is about to be released. There is another song that he hasn't been able to record: "Io Non Sono Piu' Io (I'm no longer myself)", probably we'll never hear it.

Rumors about his heallth appeared last year when Roberto Ferri, lyricist, published a poetry about his ill friend.
Now he polemizes about the album. He declared "They try to keep alive something that's already dead".

So very sad news.

	I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

	Very sad news. A truly great artist, whose name would be common currency if he had been born in an English-speaking country.
