Lucio Battisti – Una Donna Per Amico (Vinyl LP | VG+/VG+ | Copy 2)

Lucio Battisti – Una Donna Per Amico is the Italian singer-songwriter's 1978 studio album, with lyrics by Mogol and music by Battisti. It was recorded in England, partly at The Manor Studio in Oxfordshire, with British session players such as Gerry Conway, Pip Williams and Geoff Westley, who also produced the record. The album went to No. 1 on the Italian album chart and was one of the best-selling albums of 1978 in Italy. Alongside the title song, tracks like the almost eight-minute opener "Prendila così" and "Donna selvaggia donna" show Battisti's elegant, rock-leaning pop of this period.

On offer is the German original pressing from 1978 on Numero Uno (PL 34036), complete with the original inner sleeve (OIS).
