Editor's note

Vasco Rossi, the Italian rocker from Zocca

A blues-turned-rock voice who defined Italian music for decades.

For his rock energy, try "Alibi." For something quieter, "Gli Angeli" tells you more.

He started with blues in the early 1970s, but his 1985 album "Cosa succede in città" became a commercial success that changed things. Songs like "Alibi" show his rock side, while "Gli Angeli" came after his friend Massimo Riva died. He's worked with guitarist Maurizio Solieri and drummer Lele Melotti for years.

He began playing blues with Punto Rosso in the early 1970s, releasing their first album in 1978. By 1985, "Cosa succede in città" marked a shift toward broader success. Later work like 1994's "Gli Angeli" showed a more reflective side.
