Alberto Radius ( F.3 guitarist .....Also sessionman in a lot of other artists' records....ie. Franco Battiato & more...I seem to recall he played in one or more Zucchero albums but I might be wrong....) In the ghetto (from one of his albums.....he's the guitarist & vocalist)...Unable to find online translations so far.... Big hit here when it got released He passed away Feb. 16, 2023....Unfortunately Pino Daniele's sessionman Tullio De Piscopo - drums

The wind Originally by another Italian band ....F.3 rendition is sorta psychedelic.... https://flowlez.com/en/songs/il-vento-2135075/ Most of their tracks were composed by Italian artist Lucio Battisti-RIP ( and their lyrics by Mogol, who used to be Battisti's lyricist) who wanted them as accompanying band during his concerts in 1969, 70 and 71..... Formula Tre had signed with Battisti's label ( meaning he had created his own label) "Numero Uno" Then in late years Lucio chose to stop doing live shows and decided to be accompanied ( in album recordings) by a group of very talented musicians called "I Quelli" ( Those) who later would become Premiata Forneria Marconi, one of the most famous Italian bands

1969 track Composed by Lucio Battisti - Mogol ( if I'm not mistaken) Saw them in the mid-80's.....Good band Alberto Radius-RIP ( in the middle) used to be one of the best Italian guitarists back then.......Has collaborated w many artists ( Battiato & others) while pursuing a solo career recording a few albums after leaving band https://lyricstranslate.com/en/questo-folle-sentimento-crazy-feeling.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formula_3_(band)

Not part of album "Blue Afternoon"
-
Awesome, stunning, overwhelming, breath-taking, flabbergasting, thrilling, deep emotion-creating, more...... One of his absolutely best
-
Another (to me) diamond, gem, golden nugget
-
This is intense.......I'd venture to say it cuts you deep inside like a sharp knife....
-
Another gem ( aren't they all? Yes I'm biased....) Good lyrics
-
Special & unique.....Just like most of his music Love that vibraphone sound
-
All following tracks from masterpiece album "Blue Afternoon" 1969 Every song is indeed special
-
One of the best singers / songwriters ever....So powerful in his music & lyrics...And an incredible voice.....A non-stop flow of emotions...At least for me.... He left us way too early ...Just for a change..... His son Jeff ( an artist himself) died young too..... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Buckley
