and Bob Dylan (Desolation Row, thanks to the collaboration of Francesco De Gregori). In 1975 the album Volume/8 results from the collaboration with the songwriter Francesco De Gregori and is somehow experimental, in particular in the song lyrics. This album includes also a translation of a song of Leonard Cohen (Seems so long ago, Nancy). In 1975, De André performed in a concert for the first time, at "La Bussola" in Viareggio. Before that event De André has always refused to perform live concerts because he used to consider himself more a writer of songs than a performer. In the same period, he left Genoa and moved to Sardinia. In 1978 his new concept album was released Rimini, in collaboration with the singer-songwriter Massimo Bubola; the album includes also a translation of Romance in Durango (Avventura a Durango) of Bob Dylan.
