In the Italy that was rapidly passing from the post-war reconstruction phase to the economic boom, the songs of Fred Buscagliene represented the strong sign of the change: brilliant, ironic, amusing, and with that shade of subtle melancholy that could be understood only by those who knew him fully. His wife Fatima, for example, and his favorite adventure companion, the "lyricist" Leo Chiosso. Among the melodic melodies of most of the songs of the time and the barrage of inventions from the jazz and cinema cut of the Turin singer, the fracture is evident. Anticipated in part by figures such as Alberto Rabagliati and Natalino Otto, Buscaglione created, in the short period of his great success, an imaginary so modern as to stand the test of time. Difficult to think of the songs of Paolo Conte or Vinicio Capossela without the brilliant passage of Fred. "Don't you know who I am?", He sings in Whiskey easy, "I am Freddy from easy whiskey. I can be criticized but I am like that". With the simplicity of a man over the top but not too much, honest, loyal, passionate and surprising. A born artist, not studied.
