Alla fiera dell'est is the third music album by Angelo Branduardi , on which his hit Alla fiera dell'est appeared. The album was released as a long-playing record in 1976 and is dedicated to his wife Luisa Zappa, his daughter Sarah and his dog Rufon. The text of the title song is taken from the Yiddish Passover song Chad gadja . Sotto il tiglio is written after the song Under der linden by Walther von der Vogelweide . He also sings about his daughter and takes a musical phrase from the Celtic song Henry Martin for his song Il funerale .

Other language and foreign publications
The album was also released in 1978 in English under the title Highdown Fair and in French as A la foire del 'est .
In Germany, the album was released due to Branduardi's new contracts with Ariola . Because of the poor results of the collaboration with RCA , Branduardi switched to Polydor and outside Italy to Ariola and Arabella Eurodisc. In Italy the album was published with a black and white photo booklet and lyrics, in other European countries, including Germany, with a simpler and therefore cheaper gatefold cover.
With the CD, EMI published the original Italian cover, on which the lyrics are hardly legible without a magnifying glass.
