Effedia: Sulla mia cattiva strada
Effedia - Sulla mia cattiva strada is a 2008 compilation by Italian singer/songwriter Fabrizio De André. The compilation consists of two CDs with a selection of songs recorded between 1959 and 1998, and a DVD featuring a documentary about De André's life and works.
The word "Effedia" derives from the Italian pronunciation of the initials of De André's name.
AllMusic remarked about the album in its review, "Every song is fantastic, but that is hardly a surprise or an achievement considering De André's monolithic consistency -- you could conceivable let a monkey pick the selections and the results would be equally impressive."
