Due anni dopo is the second album by Italian singer-songwriterFrancesco Guccini. It was released in 1970 by EMI.[1]

Overview

The album was recorded in November 1969 in Milan.[2] On the front cover the name was simply "Francesco"; this was the second time that had happened, as Folk beat n. 1, Guccini's debut, featured this as well.[3]Due anni dopo was the first album in which Guccini collaborated with Deborah Kooperman, an American folksinger who played fingerstyle guitar, a style which was not well known in Italy at the time.[4] Her name was misspelled as "Deborah Kopperman" in the credits. Giorgio Vacchi is listed as arranger, while Guccini wrote all the songs on the album.[3] The main theme was the passage of time, and how bourgeois hypocrisy affects everyday life;[5] notable influences were French music and the style of the Italian poet Giacomo Leopardi. [6][7] "Primavera di Praga" was a criticism of the 1968 Soviet occupation of Czechoslovakia,[8] while the title track is about the years he spent in Modena, in his teens. The two songs, along with "Vedi cara", became Guccini's classics.[9]

Reception

The album was generally well received by critics. Allmusic says it was a "strong collection", while the Italian music website Ondarock states Due anni dopo had lyrics with clear "poetic and narrative connotations".[10][11]
