Lucio Battisti (5 March 1943 - 9 September 1998) was an Italian singer-songwriter. He is considered one of the best and most influential musicians and authors in Italian pop/rock music history.
Battisti started his career in 1966 and from 1969 to 1994 he released 18 albums in his home country. A significant part of his production was translated into Spanish (various albums) and English (one album). He was renowned to be an extremely reserved artist: during his successful career he performed only a relatively small number of live exhibitions and, in 1976, he stated he would communicate only through his studio albums, completely disappearing from Italian public scene.
