italy s answer to histoire de melody nelson:-amore e non amore repressed! if lucio battisti was italy s answer to france s serge gainsbourg, then amore e non amore is his own histoire de melody nelson, a concept album that s widely regarded as a formative artistic achievement (if far from the most hit packed album) of his respective career. both albums were released in 1971. for battisti, the concept came from that dichotomous title: theres a rocky non-love side of the album, which has songs about obsession and adultery, and a love side of dreamy, prog-rock instrumentals.
