CIAO y'all!

"Awesome! To listen for the first time the title track 'CIAO' while driving on the road heading west out of Roma toward the Mare Tirreno passing by the huge umbrella pines on a sunny day in marzo instantly made Dalla's newest release my favorite cd! Ciao has the most upbeat and happy feeling of any song written about war that I have ever heard... perhaps there is a method to his madness which will permeate at least one or two minds. This cd as well as others are also a wonderful tool for the learning of the Italian language... turn up Dalla's "Ciao" or "Canzioni" or "the Best of" or "Liberi" etc... grab your dizionario and then begin to journey into the depths of the songs soul... but be careful or you will find yourself pondering the plight of war and death in foreign countries as I did as soon as I translated "Ciao" at my kitchen table in Texas. Ciao a tutti e buona giornata!"

"At a very first listening I thought it was not one of Dalla's best releases, but a few listenings after, this CD has become one of my favorites. Ciao is the more easy listening one, but apart from that song, many more could easily be singles: Là, Trapiantoperso and Hotel are really among Dalla's best songs since a long time. I personally suggest you to give this Cd a chance to become yours (especially if you understand Italian)."
