Bufalo Bill is an album of Italian singer-songwriter Francesco De Gregori. It was released in 1978 by RCA Italia.

[edit] The album

De Gregori was released after a period in which the author had retired from music, working as clerk in a bookshop. The composition of the album's most famous track, "Generale", convinced him to return as full-time singer-songwriter.

"Raggio di sole" is dedicated to De Gregori recently-born twins. "Due zingari" features saxophone parts by the renowned Italian jazz musician Mario Schiano.
