the album was the most successful of the three written together by dalla and roversi, in particular for the song "nuvolari", about 1930s race driver tazio nuvolari. all the songs deal in general with cars, starting from the first track, "intervista con l'avvocato", in which dalla scat sings meaningless replies by fiat owner, gianni agnelli, to a journalist from "manchester guardian"; this is followed by "mille miglia", dedicated to the eponymous race car, and by "il motore del 2000".
