Gabriele Benzing

Redattore

Il giorno in cui è nato, Ronnie Peterson trionfava al Gran Premio di Francia al volante della propria scintillante Lotus.
La musica è stata a lungo per lui una compagna sconosciuta ma assidua. Gli amici gli hanno insegnato che si può vivere un giorno senza pane, ma non senza bellezza. Ed è stato proprio uno di loro a fargli ascoltare per la prima volta una cassetta di Paul Simon nell’afa di un’estate milanese: da allora, nulla è stato più lo stesso.
Folgorato sulla via di Duluth dal culto dylaniano dopo un concerto nel 1991, ha sviluppato un’insana passione per i songwriter più o meno introversi.
Poi, un giorno, tra gli scaffali di un negozio di dischi, si è lasciato incuriosire dalla copertina di uno dei cd in ascolto: era “Electro-Shock Blues” degli Eels, e per lui è stata l’epifania della musica indie.
Avrebbe voluto essere Daniel Pennac o Jonathan Coe, Dave Eggers o Jonathan Safran Foer, ma le pagine lasciate a metà hanno sempre prevalso su quelle portate a termine.
Non contento di vergare chiose giuridiche nel Foro ambrosiano, ha deciso allora di unire il suo amore per la scrittura a quello per la musica, continuando ad andare alla ricerca di frammenti di bellezza tra le tracce di qualche disco.

Collaboratore di Onda Rock dal 2003, ha scritto alcune monografie e pietre miliari, oltre a varie recensioni, interviste e live report.
