"Linda" (Beautiful) is a song by Italian rock band, Pooh. It was composed by Roby Facchinetti and Valerio Negrini some time before, but was released in 1976, and became the lead single on the album, Poohlover.
It seems that the song is inspired by the American model Linda Larsen, who appeared in I Pooh's television special filmed in Sperlonga in 1975, on the occasion of the album Un po' del nostra tempo and broadcast by RAI on 3 October of that year.
The song was presented at Festivalbar 1976, and was the group's first recording after the breakup with their producer, Giancarlo Lucariello, who generally opposed the development of rock arrangements.
