Description
Recorded from August 27 to September 30, 1972 (as shown on the back cover) and released the following month, This Little Big Love is a concept album about a love story. [2] The sound engineer is Franco Finetti; the cover is the work of Pompeo De Angelis; among the musicians who play on the album we remember the Apulian guitarist Silvano Chimenti , in the Sixties soloist with The Planets and inventor of the arpeggio of A world of love by Gianni Morandi . As told by Baglioni himself in the book The novel of a singer(Edizioni Lato Side, 1979), originally it was conceived as a double disc, with other songs that would have made excursions from the main story: there was, for example, a song about military life, and another, entitled Quanta strada da fare n.1 (whose theme will be partly taken up in the song of the same title and without numbering contained in the E tu … disc ) which explored the reasons for the students’ demonstration at the beginning of the story; these tracks were eliminated, and a single disc was opted for, albeit very long by the standards of the time (over 50 minutes).
