It's the surprise of the '60s. It's the Rome of Piper and rock that arrives from overseas, sometimes from overseas. It's the story of a young man in the unmissable years of rebellion, of new music, of revolution, but it's also the story of an Italy that perhaps no longer exists, a shipwrecked and navigating Italy, accomplished and failed, enthusiastic and desperate. A life between the appearances of the Rolling Stones and the love for a girl, among the extraordinary references of the time, from Mario Schifano to Monica Vitti, from Andrea Pazienza to Freak Antoni. Gino (Boy of the Century or the Lost Revolution, HarperCollins) recounts the hopes and sorrows of an era that never passed, up to the end of the '70s. A journey through words and sounds, dreams and disillusions, with the music of the time revisited in a rock-folk key by Lou Tapage, the din of the party, the healthy chaos of good company accompany us on the thin line between good and evil, between music and revolution. "Catch your dreams before they slip away," sang Mick Jagger. Hold on to your dreams before they slip away.
