Via Del Campo is a paved road that crosses the carruggi in Genoa city centre.
This street is well known for being one of the most representatives of Fabrizio De André songs ( played with Enzo Jannacci ). The song is actually named "Via del Campo" ( it belongs to his Volume 1 album).
The street was also mentioned by Amália Rodrigues in her song "La casa in via del campo".
A long time ago, the street was a trafficking place and a brothel (it usually took place in warehouses or in the famous "locked" houses). Nowadays the street has lost much of its previous meaning and its sinful atmosphere. After ten years, it is now a ring that makes a chain for the old Vacca's door, a famous stop for tourists, that connects the modern seafront of the city to the old harbour. (recently remodelled by Renzo Piano).
The parallel street is via di Prè, named after the Commenda di san Giovanni di Prè.
In the middle of the street, there is Vacchero square, where one can find "la Colonna infame" (made after Giulio Cesare Vacchero's will, which was protesting against the Genoa’s republic ).
At the beginning of the street, there is a pedestrian side in fossatello square, where via lomellini starts and there is Giuseppe Mazzini’s native house, now assigned to a Risorgimento museum.
In via del Campo, there is the record store that belongs to Gianno Tassio, a good friend of Fabrizio De Andre, who loved the store since his youth.
The commercial hub makes a sort of museum: the people who walk by it can listen to all Faber songs while they can see through the windows the whole records’ collection. Inside the shop, there is De André's famous guitar. It was bought by Giovanni Tassio with all the generous support of the city for the Emergency association. They actually gathered funds for the value of 168 million and 500,000 lire. The money was used to build a new hospital in Sierra Leone, that has been named after De André.
Gianni Tassio died in 2004. His work was led by his wife, Daniela Tassio, until 24 February 2010. The old shop was closed for two years and then the city district bought it and opened it again in 2012 as a multimedia museum dedicated to Fabrizio De André. Its name is Via del Campo 29 rosso. [1]

Fabrizio De André in Concerto - Arrangiamenti PFM ["In Concert—Arrangements by PFM"] is a 1979 live album by Fabrizio De André featuring Italian progressive rock band Premiata Forneria Marconi, also known as PFM, as his backing band, recorded during their successful 1979 tour of Italy and Europe. Built on powerful, complex and carefully crafted rock arrangements, either by single band members or by the band as a unit, the album marked a significant stylistic and musical departure for De André, whose output up to that point had always employed acoustic-based, folk arrangements, occasionally branching into pop but never overtly using rock structures and instrumentation. Upon release, the album became immediately very popular and paved the way for other Italian singer-songwriters for their own transition from a folk style into a more rock-oriented one. The album was followed by a Volume 2 the next year, recorded during the same shows.

The DVD, originally filmed as a TV broadcast on RAI, was directed by Mimma Nocelli and longtime De André collaborator Pepi Morgia, and produced by Dori Ghezzi, who released it in 2004 on her own label Nuvole Productions.
