No More Blue

Some songs do not try to save you. They sit next to you. No More Blue by Roberto Ciotti is one of those rare pieces of music that understands melancholy not as a wound, but as a memory that has learned to breathe. The blues here is no longer a cry — it is a low voice at dusk, tired, dignified, almost kind.

Heinrich Bock — poet, thinker, and lifelong resident of emotional extra time — listens to this song as one listens to an old truth one has survived. Ciotti’s guitar does not accuse. It remembers. Each note carries the weight of something once painful, now warm, like a glove forgotten in a coat pocket.

“No more blue,” he says. Heinrich does not quite believe it. But he understands the wish.

Fu il suono di un' armonica,  in quell’ afoso agosto del 1980 a Pistoia, che mi portò in fondo al mare per farmi capire che quella musica era nera ma il suo colore “rosso”.  . Poi  Maddy Waters a rapire anime  con le sue fantastiche  frustate di chitarra, mistiche onde sonore che  si lasciavano ritrovare in una dimensione irreale dove tutto era musica vivida e calda , colorata  come il sangue che sgorga da un taglio netto.

E  l’ennesima piacevole scoperta…...Roberto Ciotti.
