Pooh

Pooh, an Italian rock band, was formed in 1966 in Bolonia. The original lineup included Valerio Negrini on vocals and drums, Bob Gillot on keyboards, Riccardo Fogli on bass, and Mauro Bertoli on guitar. The group's early years saw the addition of Roby Facchinetti on keyboards in 1966 and Dodi Battaglia on guitars in 1968. Their debut album Per Quelli Come Noi was released in 1966, marking their entry into the Italian music scene. Throughout their career, Pooh released numerous albums, including Contrasto, Memorie, and Opera Prima. Notable songs such as "Cuore azzurro" (2006) and "Il cielo non finisce mai" (2007) became fan favorites. The band underwent several lineup changes, with Stefano D'Orazio joining in 1971 and Red Canzian replacing Riccardo Fogli in 1973. In 2009, Stefano D'Orazio left the group, and Steve Ferrone took over on drums. Pooh continued to perform until their final album 50: L'ultima Notte Insieme was released in September 2016. The band's impact on Italian music is significant, with over 100 million records sold worldwide.
