“Lost Moon” the new disc by Max Manfredi
Wednesday, September 24th, 2008
Max Manfredi is the classic example of a musician beloved by critics and poorly rewarded by the public, at least in terms of sales. For years, brings forward some ‘on the sidelines, his work of American fine and ironic. Sometimes ruthless, always battle, his writing and his eyes author disenchanted rest on human feelings, history and society of yesterday and today. His previous album often contain insights and flash of the original artist and intellectual almost brazen, I have to admit I had never really won.
This new disc instead I was immediately struck, and not just for the thrill of hearing the voice of Fabrizio De Andre, in duet in “La Maddalena proud of” bonus single-track and re-edited piece among many new songs. The title is “Lost Moon” and will be in stores by Friday, Sept. 26.
A collection that is the result of research and passion irreverent, with one dose of cynicism which is good for people to trade is an observer and narrator of these (sad) times. A disc important, it would be a shame to get only those who already knows and frequents the music Manfredi.
