were the years of protest and as Bob Dylan launches clear and unequivocal message, Francesco Guccini unleashed anger among right-thinking people talking openly about corruption and pettiness, of myths and false gods with songs "State 17", "Death of SF (Song for a friend)," We will not be there, "" God is dead "," To a man. "For these last songs that are part of his first album "Folk Beat No. 1 (1967) was not enough to stop the censorship of the RAI message Guccini and hide this new way of thinking that spread like wildfire in the minds youth more aware and angry, ready to fight against the injustices perpetrated in the name and on behalf of a false ideal.
