With "La terra dei cachi", Elio e le Storie Tese took part in the 46th edition of the national song contest in Sanremo, eventually making it to 2nd place.
One night, the artists involved were asked to perform a one-minute version of their song. While all the others were just content to sing a portion of the song, EelST and the accompanying orchestra performed it at double speed, to mind-boggling effect!
Their Sanremo experience was so successful that their new album would be bookended by the original live version (instead of the studio take) and this "compressed" one.
