Squallor
Squallor (also spelled as Gli Squallor) were an Italian comedy music group, active between 1973 and 1994.
Career
The group formed in 1973 as a ribald side project of four established musicians, composer and producer Giancarlo Bigazzi, producer Alfredo Cerruti, lyricist Daniele Pace and songwriter Totò Savio.[1] Characterized by adult themes, references to sex, political incorrectness, and vulgarity, in spite of no live activity and radio ostracism, they got an immediate commercial success.[1] In 1984 they wrote and starred in the low budget comedy Arrapaho, loosely inspired by their album with the same name, which was a surprise hit at box office and achieved some cult status.[2] The group disbanded in 1994, following their last album Cambiamento.[1] In 2012 it was released Gli Squallor, a documentary about the story of the group.[3]
