This site started from a list of 100 desert-island records. I have made a list of records divided in genres (classical, jazz, popular). It is not an hit parade. The order has no meaning. I really think that musical tastes depend on personal needs and knowledge. For precise details go to the italian webpage. This site is dedicated to Eric Dolphy's memory. This site is in black and white. Only textes, not images, flashes, multimedia. Only ideas and contents, not bullshit.

“All music is good and all music is a challenge. All music has its own message. Music is like just people and places and things. Everything has a message for someone. And I'm in no position to criticize anything.”

“So many people are not interested in music but in the person. They only talk about the person. Take Beethoven. He was supposed to be a terrible man an the writers of its time only talked about that. But he created something and what he created was beauty, and it's still alive today”

“There's so much good music that isn't being heard. Schonberg and Berg and Bartok and Webern, they're just beginning to be heard. And so many other things that haven't been heard at all”

Eric Dolphy, polistrumentista, come potete vedere aveva il “bernoccolo” della musica. RIP
