Origins
Guccini was born in 1940 in Modena , Italy. His father, Ferruccio Guccini, was a postal employee, and his mother, Ester Prandi, was a housewife. While his father served in the Italian military during World War II , Guccini lived with his grandparents in a small village in the Apennine Mountains in northern Tuscany called Pàvana , where he spent his childhood. His years spent in the somewhat archaic society of the mountains of central Italy was to be a strong inspiration throughout his career, and it became one of the key recurring themes of his songs and books.
When World War II had ended, Guccini moved back to his family in Modena. He studied at the Istituto Magistrale Carlo Sigonio, the same school Luciano Pavarotti had attended, earning his high school diploma in 1958. Guccini spent his teenage years in Modena , as he later recounted in his second novel ''Vacca d'un Cane and in songs including "Piccola Città", which paints a bitter portrait of the city as "a strange enemy".
Youth and musical beginnings
Guccini's first job was as a teacher at a boarding school in Pesaro , but he was fired after a month and a half. He then worked as a journalist at the Gazzetta di Modena for two years. In April 1960, Guccini interviewed Domenico Modugno , who had just won two consecutive Sanremo Music Festival|Sanremo Festivals . This inspired Guccini to write "L'antisociale", his first composition as a singer-songwriter. In 1958 Guccini was guitarist and vocalist in a group first called Hurricanes, then Snakers and finally Gatti. The group included Pier Farri (drums), who would later become Guccini's Record producer|producer ; Victor Sogliani (saxophone), future member of Equipe 84 ; and Franco Fini Storchi (guitar). Guccini wrote his first songs while in the Snakers, in a style inspired by The Everly Brothers and Peppino di Capri . The group performed for two years, touring around Northern Italy and Switzerland. In 1961 the Guccini family moved to Bologna , and Francesco enrolled at the University of Bologna to study foreign languages. The next year he undertook mandatory military service, an experience he described as "substantially positive". When he returned to Bologna, Guccini was asked to join the band Equipe 84 , but he declined in order to continue his studies. He later quit university just before taking his degree (he was conferred a degree honoris causa in science education in 2002). The band Cantacronache was an important influence in Guccini's artistic growth, as was Bob Dylan .
Debut (1967–1969)
Record Producer Compagnia Generale del Disco|CGD commissioned Guccini to write a song for the 1967 Sanremo Festival , "Una storia d'amore", to be sung by Caterina Caselli and Gigliola Cinquetti at . The song, though, was not selected for the event, and Guccini was embittered by the edits made by two lyricists engaged by CGD. Guccini made his debut as a singer-songwriter in March 1967, with the album Folk beat n. 1 , which received little commercial success. Three of the songs recorded for the album had previously been successes for Nomadi and Equipe 84: "Noi non ci saremo", "L'antisociale" and "Auschwitz". The latter was translated and sung in English by Equipe 84, as well as by Rod MacDonald in his 1994 album Man on the Ledge . Another song from the album, "In morte di S.F.", later renamed "Canzone per un'amica", was recorded by Nomadi in 1968. From 1965 onward, Guccini spent 20 years teaching Italian at the off-campus Dickinson College , in Bologna.
In May 1967 Guccini made his first appearance in television, on Diamoci del tu , hosted by Caterina Caselli and Giorgio Gaber singing "Auschwitz". He wrote several songs for Caselli and for Nomadi, who made his song "Dio è morto" become widely popular; it became one of his most famous songs, despite being censored by the RAI for blasphemy . In 1968 the Gramophone record|45& nbsp;rpm record Un altro giorno è andato/Il bello was released; Guccini re-recorded the Side A song in an acoustic version for his 1970 album '' L'isola non trovata . His first concert was held the same year at the La Cittadella Cultural Centre in Assisi .
1970s
In 1970 Guccini released his second album, Due anni dopo , recorded in the autumn of 1969. The main themes of the album are the passage of time and the analysis of everyday life in the context of bourgeois hypocrisy, with a noticeable influence from French music and from Giacomo Leopardi|Leopardi 's poetic style. After this album Guccini started his 10 year long collaboration with folksinger Deborah Kooperman, who played fingerstyle guitar on it, a style mostly unknown in Italy at the time. Eleven months after Due anni dopo , the album '' L'isola non trovata '' was released. The title was a literary reference to Guido Gozzano , and the song "La collina" contained a reference to J. D. Salinger . Guccini's fame began to spread beyond Bologna, partly thanks to the appearance in the TV show Speciale tre milioni , where he sang some of his songs and befriended Claudio Baglioni . In 1971 he married his long-time girlfriend Roberta Baccilieri, who was pictured on the back cover of his next album.
The turning point in Guccini's career was in 1972 thanks to the album Radici (roots), about the constant research of one's origins.. This was also conveyed by the image on the front cover of the album, portraying Guccini's grandparents and their siblings next to their old mountain home. Radici contains some of his most renowned and popular songs, like "Incontro", "Piccola Città", "Il vecchio e il bambino", "La Canzone della bambina portoghese", "Canzone dei dodici mesi", and "La locomotiva", based on a real event and dealing with themes of equality, social justice and freedom, with a style similar to the anarchic music of the end of the 19th century. In the same year Guccini brought Claudio Lolli , a young singer-songwriter, to his record label, EMI Italiana. He later wrote two songs with him, "Keaton" and "Ballando con una sconosciuta".
In 1973 Guccini released Opera buffa , a light-hearted and playful album, which showed his skills as an ironic, theatrical and cultured cabaret artist. Guccini was perplexed by the release of the disc, especially because of its arrangements and because it was recorded live (with overdubs made in a recording studio). One year later Stanze di vita quotidiana was released, with a mixed reception by fans and critics. It included six long and melancholic songs, a mirror of the crisis Guccini faced, worsened by constant disagreements with his producer Pier Farri. Guccini received harsh criticism, including a slating by the critic Riccardo Bertoncelli, who said the singer songwriter was "a finished artist, who has nothing else to say". Guccini answered with the song "L'avvelenata", a few years later.
Guccini had his first commercial success in 1976, with Via Paolo Fabbri 43 , which was the sixth best-selling album of the year. It was named after the address of the house in Bologna where he lived. He sang with a more mature and determined voice, and the musical structure was more complex than in his earlier works. The album contained "L'avvelenata", a bitter and colourful reply to the criticism he received for Stanze di vita quotidiana , which cited one of his critics, Riccardo Bertoncelli. Later Guccini was reluctant in performing the song during concerts, saying it was obsolete.Listen |filename=Francesco Guccini - Amerigo.ogg |title="Amerigo" |description=Guccini said about "Amerigo": "It is the most complete, refined, rich of themes, and maybe most beautiful song I've ever written" |format= Ogg The title track was an abstract description of Guccini's life in Bologna , which referenced Jorge Luis Borges|Borges and Roland Barthes|Barthes ; it also mentioned the "three heroins of Italian song", Alice, Marinella and Lilly, three women from songs by Italian singer-songwriters Francesco De Gregori|De Gregori , Fabrizio De André|De André and Antonello Venditti|Venditti . Other notable tracks were "Canzone quasi d'Amore", characterised by existential poetry, and "Il pensionato", about an old neighbour of Guccini, focusing on the sad psychological situation of some old people. Guccini's next album, Amerigo (album)|Amerigo was released in 1978. The most popular song was "Eskimo", but Guccini claimed the highest point was the title track, a ballad about an emigrant uncle of his. In 1977 the weekly magazine Grand Hotel featured Guccini on the cover titled "The father every teenager would have liked to have". Guccini did not endorse the article, which was based on an interview he did not know would be published, and commented: "I cannot understand how they chose that title, I write songs for an audience of people in their thirties, I do not see how an audience of sixteen year olds fresh out of school could relate with the things I say". In the same year, Guccini separated from his wife Roberta (the song "Eskimo" is about this event), and started cohabitating with Angela. In 1978 they had a daughter, Teresa, to whom the songs "Culodritto" and "E un giorno..." are dedicated. In 1979 the live album Album concerto , recorded in a concert with Nomadi, was released. It was peculiar because the songs were performed in duet with Augusto Daolio , and because it included previously unreleased songs: "Dio è morto", "Noi", and "Per fare un uomo".
1980s
The first album released by Guccini in the eighties was Metropolis (Guccini album)|Metropolis , which was characterised by the description of cities with a symbolic value: Byzantium , Venice , Bologna and Milan . Their histories mingle with the distress caused by life in the city and with symbolic references. The album had richer arrangements, with saxophones, bass guitars, drums, clarinets , flutes and zuffolo|zufoli . Byzantium is described by Guccini as a fascinating yet oppressive city at the crossroads of two continents and two eras. The song is set at the time of Emperor Justinian I (483–565), and there are many historical references to that period, that have been explained by Guccini himself. The narrator, Filemazio, who some critics believe to be a fictionalized Guccini, senses the decadence of his civilization and the coming of the end. The song was praised by critic Paolo Jachia, who described it as "moving and dreamlike". In 1981 Guccini was the co-author, along with Giorgio Gaber , Sandro Luporini and Gian Piero Alloisio, of the musical Gli ultimi viaggi di Gulliver . The eponymous song "Gulliver" was then included in Guccini's next album, Guccini (album)|Guccini , which dealt with the same themes found in Metropolis (Guccini album)|Metropolis . Notable songs in the album include "Shomèr ma mi llailah? " ("Watchman, what of the night? ", from bible|Isaiah 21:11), "Autogrill", about a love only dreamt of, and "Inutile", which narrates a day two lovers spent in Rimini . The subsequent tour was the first in which Guccini performed with a backing band ; previously, Guccini used to perform solo, or with just one or two guitarists. In 1984 the live album Fra la via Emilia e il West was released. It included live versions of many of his popular songs, recorded mainly at a concert held in Piazza Maggiore in Bologna , in which several guests performed alongside Guccini: Giorgio Gaber , Paolo Conte , I Nomadi , Roberto Vecchioni and Equipe 84 .
In 1987 the album Signora Bovary was released. Several of the songs portray people from Guccini's life: "Van Loon" is his father, "Culodritto" is his daughter Teresa, and "Signora Bovary" is himself. Other songs include "Keaton", written with his friend Claudio Lolli , and "Scirocco", an award-winning song about an episode in the life of the poet Adriano Spatola, a friend of Guccini. In 1988 the singer-songwriter released a live album, ...quasi come Dumas... , which included some of his songs from the Sixties, in a rearranged version. The title is a homage to Twenty Years After , the novel by Alexandre Dumas .
1990s
In 1990 Guccini released Quello che non... , which continued in the style of Signora Bovary . Songs included in the album are "Quello che non" and "La canzone delle domande consuete", which received the Club Tenco best song of the year award. Three years later, he released Parnassius Guccinii referencing a subspecies of butterfly which was named in his honour. The song "Farewell", included in the album, is a homage to Bob Dylan 's " Farewell, Angelina (song)|Farewell, Angelina ", featuring its instrumental introduction and citing a verse ("The triangle tingles, and the trumpet plays slow"). The literary criticist Paolo Jachia commented: "Guccini's enormous poetic and cultural effort has been opening the best tradition of Italian poetry to Dylan-esque ballads". Other songs included in the album are "Canzone per Silvia", dedicated to Silvia Baraldini, and "Acque", composed for Tiziano Sclavi 's movie Nero .
It was three years until he released his next album, '' D'amore di morte e di altre sciocchezze , which achieved significant commercial success. Tracks included are "Cirano", inspired by the play Cyrano de Bergerac (play)|Cyrano de Bergerac ; "Quattro stracci", about the ending of the relationship with Angela (the same woman to whom Farewell was dedicated); "Stelle" about the feelings of powerlessness men feel when looking at the starry night sky; "Vorrei", dedicated to his new partner, Raffaella Zuccari, and "I Fichi", a farcical song.
2000s
Stagioni was Guccini's first album of the 2000s. The key theme is the passage of time and the different temporal cycles connected to it. Songs included are "Autunno", "Ho ancora la forza" (with Luciano Ligabue|Ligabue ), "Don Chisciotte", in which Guccini takes the role of Don Quixote , and his guitarist that of Sancho Panza ), and "Addio", a song akin to "L'avvelenata". The album and its tour were successful, with the unexpected presence of many young people among the audience, establishing Guccini as an iconic artist for three generations. A special limited edition vinyl version of Stagioni was also released. In 2004 Guccini released Ritratti . Some of the songs contained in the album are imagined dialogues with historical figures, such as Odysseus , Christopher Columbus and Che Guevara . The first track of the album, "Odysseus", is on the theme of travel, and contains references to the Odyssey , to Dante Alighieri|Dante (Canto 27 of Inferno (Dante)|Inferno ), and to a poem by Ugo Foscolo|Foscolo . Another song in the album, "Piazza Alimonda", is about the death of Carlo Giuliani during the Genoa G8 summit#Protests|demonstrations at the G8 summit in Genoa . Ritratti received critical acclaim and commercial success, reaching the number one spot in the FIMI Albums Chart, holding it for two weeks, and remaining in the chart for eighteen weeks. In the same year, lyrics from "Canzone per Piero" were included in a final upper secondary school exam"; Guccini claimed he was "embarrassed and glad" about being alongside Cicero and Raphael . In 2005 the live double-album Anfiteatro Live , recorded in the amphitheatre in Cagliari , was released; it also included a DVD of the concert. Anfiteatro Live was a commercial success, holding the number one spot in the FIMI Chart for one month, and remaining in the chart for twenty-two weeks. In 2006 Guccini received one vote in the 2006 Italian presidential election, 2006|Italian presidential election . The same year, the triple-album The Platinum Collection , containing 47 songs, was released as a celebration of his fortieth year as a musical artist. In October Guccini's official biography, Portavo allora un Eskimo innocente by Massimo Cotto, was published.
On 21 April 2008, an article on La Stampa affirmed that Guccini had stopped smoking, and that this had caused him to gain weight and lose his inspiration. He denied it on 18 May 2008, in TV show Che tempo che fa . In 2010 the Mondadori published Non so che viso avesse , a book which contains a Guccini autobiography and, in the second part of the book, a critical essay edited by Alberto Bertoni. Luciano Ligabue , friend and colleague of Guccini, entitled him a song, "Caro il mio Francesco" on his album Ligabue discography|Arrivederci, mostro! . On 28 September 2010 the collection Storia di altre storie was released, with songs selected by Guccini himself. In the same year the botanist Davide Donati named a new species of mexican cactus, the Corynopuntia guccinii, after him. In the article about the discovery on the botanical magazine Piante Grasse , Donati explained that he discovered the unknown plant whilst listening to Guccini's "Incontro", adding: "I could not have named it after anyone else". On 25 April 2011, Guccini married for the second time , with Raffaella Zuccari, who had been his partner in the last fifteen years.
