I Corvi are an Italian rock band that rose to prominence in the 1960s during the burgeoning beat music scene in Italy. The group, which took its name meaning "The Crows" in Italian, carved out a distinctive niche with their Italian-language covers of British and American rock hits. They achieved notable success with their rendition of "Un ragazzo di strada," a cover of "A Boy Named Sue" originally by Johnny Cash, which became one of their signature songs and an enduring classic of the Italian rock scene.

During their heyday, I Corvi captured the rebellious spirit and style of the era, sporting long hair and leather jackets, which was somewhat of a countercultural statement for the time. They went through various lineup changes and after their initial period of success, they experienced a decline. However, the band has seen various revivals over the years, with "L'ultimo dei Corvi" being a nod to their longevity and enduring appeal. With a discography that includes albums like "I Corvi," "Ricetta Antirughe," and compilations such as "Il meglio" (The Best), I Corvi have cemented their legacy in Italian rock history. Despite navigating the shifts in musical tastes and industry changes over the decades, the band's music continues to resonate with both nostalgic fans and new listeners drawn to the classic beat sound.
