To give that next home cooked Italian dinner the right musical background and atmosphere, we have concocted most versatile musical menu with original Italian and Neapolitan songs featuring outstanding artists who's talents and personalities will be projected by this Colonial HI-FI L.P. album. All selections have a true Italian or local Neapolitan flavor and are not the "here today and gone tomorrow" type of songs, but melodies which have achieved a measure of permanent value. The A-side presents wits No. 1, a song which was made famous by the great tenor Tito Schipa "COMME FACETTE MAMMETA" well performed on this COLONIAL HI-FI LP by the charming Anna Coraggio. Another Neapolitan sang is rendered by the popular tenor Ralph Pedi "N'ORA 'E FELICITA". Next, n so called "high" Italian, we hear voices blended in the appealing duet "NON PIANGERE PERCHE". One of the most famous Italian mother songs of all times is "MAMMA" sung with great feeling and understanding by Anna Coraggio. To add variety v e next hear Bellantoni's original Sicilian "TARANTELLA MERIDIONALE" :end Tenor Piero Lovati gives us a unique musical picture in the sung "CAROSELL,D". Do gentlemen prefer blondes? Wei: the text content of our male duet singing "LA BIONDA E LA BRUNA" NON SONO PER ME, gives us the answer, blonde or brunette, who cares. This is also sung in Italian as is Enzo di Mola and chorus' version of "YOU-KE-LEE, YOU-KE-LA".Our prima donna Anna Coraggio returns to the Colonial stage in a tender ballad "VOCE E NOTTE" and changing scenes, we listens once again to our male duet in the Italian chanson "IL CACCIATOR". To conclude our musical Italian and Neapolitan menu we offer after numerous well served courses for desert "LUNA NAPOLITANA" in which song Anna Coraggio tells us about the romantic moonlight over Naples. The pleasing tenor of Piero Lovati gives us his interpretation of "IO CANTO". It is Finale curtain time for "CANZONETTE ITALIANE" and as our artists take a bow, you may. look for encores in our catalogue. Thank you!
