Tropico del nord is the ninth album released by the Italian rock band Pooh in 1983. According to the liner notes, it was the first album ever released on CD by an Italian band. It signals a change of direction for the band, with their earlier hard rock style replaced by a pop-oriented sound. Although the promotional tour proved that Pooh were still a strong draw, the album did not fare as well on the charts as their previous releases.
