CHOCABECK is the eleventh studio album by Italian blues rock singer-songwriter Zucchero Fornaciari released on 3rd November 2010. The term CHOCABECK derives from the Emilian equivalent to Italian word ''schioccabecco'', meaning the sound of empty beak. Adelmo Fornaciari heard it from his father when was very young, describing the social conditions of the time. It is a concept album, describing a typical Sunday from dawn to dusk in a small countryside Italian village in the region where he grew up. It consists of an autumnal cycle of songs. It's an album in which Zucchero returns to his roots, and is introspective and allegorical about life, positivity, and hope. Each song was accompanied by a music video, with Francesco Guccini appearing in the video of "Un Soffio Caldo". Like his previous albums, it includes many notable collaborations. Brian Wilson from the Beach Boys sings backing vocals the title track. The lyrics of the opening song "Un Soffio Caldo" were co-written with renowned Italian songwriter Guccini, while "Oltre Le Rive" was written with Pacifico. The lyrics of the last song "God Bless The Child" were written by Roland Orzabal from the band Tears For Fears, Chaz Jankel, and Derek Hussey. The English versions of "Alla Fine" ("Too Late") and "Chocabeck" ("Spirit Together") were written by Iggy Pop. The collaboration with U2's Bono is Zucchero's third translation after translating into English the songs "Miserere" (1992) and "Blu" ("Blue"; 1998). The lyrics of "Someone Else's Tears" were written by Bono, while Zucchero freely translated them in the counterpart "Il Suono Della Domenica". According to Zucchero's interpretation of English lyrics, when Bono wrote the song he was probably inspired by something painful he saw or felt. When he heard Zucchero's version before the U2's concert in Rome, Bono initially concentrated silently while it was played, and afterward cried. Zucchero considers the song to be the most representative of the album.
The packaging is presented in a neat and elegant way. Box contains a DVD with videos of all the tracks of the album, including the English Versions.
