Jovanotti Backup 1987-2012 Il Best (4 CD Deluxe Ed): A Journey Through 25 Years of Music and Hits

Jovanotti had not released a proper greatest-hits collection in Italy since 1995's outstanding Lorenzo 1990-1995. In the meantime, he had continued to make records which typically hogged the Italian rankings' top spot for months, as he restlessly tried out new stylistic directions and, much to his own surprise, eventually became one of the country's quintessential pop cultural icons of the late 20th and early 21st century. By the time his career reached the 25-year mark, Jovanotti decided it was the right moment to put his house (or rather, his PC files) in exhaustive order with the aptly titled Backup 1987-2012. Released in late 2012 just in time to entice hordes of Christmas shoppers, Backup is a colossal anthology project offered in three physical and two digital editions. The standard two-CD edition (also available digitally) contains 39 tracks, and could be considered an expanded version of Lorenzo 1990-1995, as it includes all of his hits as well as a couple of new tracks. The deluxe four-CD edition (again, also available for download) ups the ante to 75 tracks, while the limited Box Edition simply goes bananas: 123 tracks on seven CDs, an 8-GB pen drive with everything Jovanotti ever recorded in mp3 format (about 600 tracks), two DVDs, the first with all of Jovanotti's influential video clips and the second compiling all of his TV appearances (offering an involuntary but revealing overview of contemporaneous Italian TV history in the process), a photo album, an autobiographical 100-page book in which Jovanotti tells his own story, plus of course the artifact, the box, which is an object d'art in itself.
