Not the best / No es el mejor

"This it is a light album, with no complications. Unfortunately, it turns out to be shallow when compared to previous 883 works, like "La Dura Legge del Gol" or "La Donna, Il Sogno e Il Grande Incubo", in which the songs go from worldly to spiritual in an almost imperceptible way. Good energy level provided by BELLA VERA and LA LUNGA ESTATE CALDISSIMA, in addition to the video files of both songs inserted in the CD. Excellent combination of Max Pezzali's voice with Syria's in ESSERE IN TE. The art is impeccable, the most novel thing being the booklet to which a shining UV layer has been applied in some areas, making it flashier. This isn't one of the best 883 albums, but still has some good things...."
Bella vera!

"This recently released cd is a lot of fun, especially the video tracks "bella vera (non e il caldo ma)" and "la lungha estate caldissima". But these songs don't give the flavor of the whole album which is surprisingly varied. Romantic songs, like "Essere in te" and "Honolulu Baby" are well executed and beautifully sung. "Cloro" is an upbeat, strange song that sticks in the head but is uniquely flavorful. The title song's instrumentals are unique. It is a cd you'll listen to over and over again. The videos are delightfully cheesy, exactly what you expect from italian pop!"
