by RINO GAETANO
Forty years after his death he still talks
For the wise and a little irony 'brazen of her texts, the desire for purity that shines through the words of his songs for the "dreams of glory" of an immigrant from Calabria is remembered as a singer cult by younger generations. The history that Rino Gaetano remained young forever with messages that communicated with his songs that are very new. Upstream and outside the box of Italy bigoted and sickly sweet songs of his contemporaries, was an acute observer of manners, extraordinarily capable of jeopardizing the darker sides of his day.
E 'was ignored by the critics for a long time or at least has been appreciated only for the songs more popular and commercial. Only after his passing will be celebrated its real value as a poet and alchemist as he liked to Mughal, a minstrel who knows how to entertain - not common dowry - but he also knows that to reflect on difficult issues and difficult to deal with music. Both chatted which was taken as a symbol by some schools of thought pro-modern policies, even though he was an anti-political par excellence - "I try a different flag," he sang - he was an anarchist, a rebel, but not how it was that the sessantottini fought for the spirit of emulation, was a radical revolutionary who truly seek "a different world.
He loved to rail against all the "ugliness" of the world professed to be unrelated to any kind of compromise, even to those so in vogue at that time "the easy solutions" mentioned in his songs. With elegant sarcasm could express his contempt for politicians who "minimize their crimes." Without rules or taboos, even in innovative stylistic techniques, telling things in a very personal way, without trying to attract attention or make audiences. We understood clearly that was not a character built, but quite natural and spontaneous. And sang with anger and power so scratchy voice that was hardly equal.
His time, however, not included: managers as Maurizio Costanzo were offended by their inclusion in the ranking of "nuntereggae more" and have labeled it, diminishing it at all costs, as the author of nonsense, almost as if it was the usual story-tellers crowding in song words drawn lots to say nothing and appoint the great because they are looking for success. Actually Rino Gaetano understand means to know its history, its origin and its past.
It was a simple person who loved fun, rich in culture despite having never attended school known, loved to read, study self-taught, stay updated, read up and know everything and its culture is reflected by his eccentric and philosophical texts, but always correctly calibrated . It was also not by chance called master of irony as well as cricket speaker and poet still sealed!
Both subtle and witty to prophesy his death. In 70 he recorded a song tragic "The Ballad of Sam" which tells the story of a boy committed a serious car accident and died for being needlessly tossed from one hospital to another without having found a space to be able hospital. Ten years after he died in the same way and for the same reason.
