Revolver’s deejay dad plays with his passions for notes and engines: “Aprilia is Billy Joel’s plan, Ducati a saxophone, Honda the Ramones. Marquez? A punk as ravaged as the Sex Pistols”
Music has always been a part of his life, “ever since I slipped records into my parents’ Geloso and they danced”. But the other music that has always accompanied him is that of the engines: “My uncles were real Teddy Boys, they went around with the Caballero, long sideburns and jeans, and in the ’60s and’ 70s, if you had jeans, in Milan you were considered a criminal. I saw them arrive on motorbikes, girls, I said, even when I grow up I want to do this “. DJ Ringo is this week’s guest of Paolo Ianieri and Zoran Filicic at MotoG-Podcast, the talk on the engines of the Gazzetta dello Sport, in an episode where music and engines join hands without ever leaving. And who, if not Ringo, could we ask for a playlist associated with two wheels and those who drive it? So, here is that “for me the Aprilia is a warm instrument, a piano played in the 80s by Billy Joel, the Suzuki remains my favorite, after having dreamed of the RG Gamma 250 as a boy, it is Sting’s bass in the Police , Honda is very presumptuous, in a positive way, he is the frontman, the Elvis Presley of MotoGP, while Ducati is a saxophone, which is a mistreated instrument, but it’s beautiful, it can enrich a band if you really know how to play it. ” And then, since he races in Fast Endurance, here is “the Moto Guzzi that is the blues of Stevie Ray Vaughan’s guitar”.
From the bikes to the riders, if Marco Simoncelli “was Jimi Hendrix, I was doing a radio program with Sic, when he started listening to him he said to me, ‘Oh, but Hendrix is good, you know?’, Rossi, on the other hand, I’ve always seen him almost aseptic in music, cold, prog, like Genesis. Marquez is talented, hot, ravenous, a punk, so for him I would choose the Sex Pistols of Holiday in the Sun, Agostini is the Emperor, it is Elvis who sings Burning Love, while Biaggi who is a friend, one who has made me go through all the colors, is madly in love with Jon Bon Jovi and therefore his song is It’s my life “.
