A little help

Tuesday, September 20th, 2011

As happens every so often have to write to you to have "a little help."
A few posts ago, I warned you that now my books are published by photocity established, which in the change I noticed that now you can post reviews.

I am therefore asking all those who have read FdP and Haiku to write a review on the publisher's site, and I ask all those who still do not have beds ordinalrli and review them ... :-).

Thank you!

Luca Carboni - Untitled (CD)

Friday, September 16th, 2011

It 'released on 13 September to 5 years away from "the band dissolve" Luca Carboni's new album titled "Untitled."

It is not the first time that Carboni uses "titles / no titles" for his album, because we remember Luke CARBON (1987), COAL (1992), DIARY OF COAL (1993), LU * CA (2001) and also wanting to LIVE (2003, this is because, as the same songwriter, a title featuring a very hard, while a "no way" anyone can get a personal impression of the work, nevertheless I think the cover is particularly significant one man (the same carbons) holding his son by the hand, shoulders watching / walking in the same direction ... so if there's a real title, Carboni seems to want to suggest that is a record of confidences, words, perhaps even teaching, as a father can do with a child (but also vice-versa)

UNTITLED, contains 10 tracks (11 if purchased on iTunes):

  • 01. Not The World Ends Mica
  • 02. In Italy Province
  • 03 Do The Bags
  • 04. For All The Time
  • 05. O What the f ** Beautiful Love
  • 06. No Roads
  • 07. Riccione Alexander-Platz
  • 08. Free To Go
  • 09. A Tear
  • 10. Mother
  • 11. The River (iTunes bonus tracks only)

A record "new" yet still "intimate" in the classic style Carboni, there are, in my opinion, the "drops of life" to be savored slowly, the "gems".
The album "sounds" very well, it was known that the time spent for the arrangements, every sound is designed, maintained.

Mica does not end the world
It 'a hymn to look around, not to fossilize over what you have and / or who are known to do well, a push to experiment, innovate even risk it, "if the world does not end mica end roads"

In Italy Province
I think the first gem, a "complaint" of how the beautiful Italian province is not ready to change, though the world has changed.

Make Cases
And 'the first single from the album, in fact actually preceded it.

For All The Time
simply a love song ... to listen .... maybe in 2

O What the f ** Beautiful Love
Second single from the album ... just a "classic" hymn to love, who managed to bring healing. Twitter Jovanotti called it a fi ** t!

No Roads
The second jewel of the album and perhaps the song that best represents the cover, a poignant memory of his father and his teachings.

Riccione Alexander-Platz
Second report of the album, this time against "young" 80 years, although it animated by good intentions have not done anything good for this society and this world.

Free To Go
Or critical awareness ... and still wants to "travel" ... an examination of what it is or maybe it was not ... people today.

A Tear
Another love song to his girlfriend but also taken of awareness of what happens when you become parents, but deep down you are still children.

Mother
Poignant memory / dedicated to his mother. "Mother, mother, and you're gone I do not know anything about you" ...

The River (bonus track only for itunes.
Carboni proposes its first song written 14 years for what was his group then it must be said that already ... very promising ...

He leaned over and poured the money, then, without asking the permission of the blind, took the box, turned it over and wrote another sentence.
In the afternoon, the advertiser repassed by the blind and noticed that his hat was full of coins and banknotes.
The blind man recognized his step, and asked if it was he who had written on his piece of cardboard and above what you had written down.
The ad said: "Nothing that is not true, I just rewrote your sentence in another way."
He smiled and walked away.
The blind person never knew that his piece of cardboard on it read:
"Today is Spring and I can not see it."
