“Alt! Qui ci vuole la censura. Sì, un bel censore o addirittura, non mi vergogno a dirlo, un dittatore. Qualcuno che ci dica cosa dobbiamo fare e cosa non dobbiamo fare. Sì, ma chi?”
[da Elogio della schiavitù, di Gaber - Luporini]

“Best of all is “Ombrelloni,” a pop pastiche of the most danceable variety, almost a homage to the power-pop of the late 60s—think The Monkees, with a crowd-chanted middle eight and some, well, groovy guitars underneath it. Placed just after the half-time interlude, it comes in at just the right time to remind the listener that beyond being bamboozled by the array of styles, in essence, this is an album to put on and be stupidly happy to while absorbing its layers.
Mediocre pop from around the world finds easy purchase in the Italian charts—even Jentina appears to have some kind of career there. If there were justice, this sublime, original pop would transcend language and tear up charts all around the world. That it won’t is the world’s loss; Simone Cristicchi is an astonishing talent whose progress will be interesting and entertaining to behold if the consistent quality of Fabbricante di Canzoni is anything to go by.”
