Sì... incoerenza is the seventh studio album by Italian singer Patty Pravo, released in 1972 by Philips Records.

Overview

For this album, Patti Pravo collaborates with singer and composer Léo Ferré, with whom she records Italian cover versions of famous songs: "Piccino" (the original "Petite") and "Col tempo" ("Avec le temps"), Ferré himself performs two instrumental compositions on the album called "La solitudine", opening and closing the record.

Among others, the album contains songs such as "Per me amico mio", an Italian-language cover of Sonny & Cher's popular duet song "A Cowboy's Work Is Never Done", "Non so perché mi sto innamorando", an Italian version of "The Way of Love" (also performed by Cher), and "A modo mio" (Italian version of the song "My Way" from the repertoire of Frank Sinatra).[2] The song "Valsinha" was recorded in the same year by singer Mia Martini and included in her album Nel mondo, una cosa (1972).[3][4]

One single was released from the album, "Io / Un po' di più", which did not receive much chart success. The album itself reached the twelfth place in the weekly chart.[5] This album was the singer's last collaboration with Philips Records.[6]
