Croon-A-Roma

Rare Sentimental Vocal Tracks from Italian 60s and 70s Movies

Despite the enormous number of compilations dedicated to Italian soundtracks this CD also presents music out of this field. But this time we focus on the vocal interpreters, since in most cases they have been neglected unpardonably (except maybe in the perception of Ennio Morricone’s work).

More precisely: It’s all about "crooning”, the real deep Italian sentiment, sometimes schmaltzy, sometimes sexy, but always touchingly intense. Compiling this CD DJ Freddy directed his special attention to the expressive voice and the extraordinary performance. Indeed there’s a complete filmography included, but here filmhistorical relevance has been put behind actual "club-suitability".

The featured artists are mostly unknown to a bigger audience. They usually had to stay in the background behind great composers (like in this case e.g.: Francesco De Masi, Nico Fidenco or Stelvio Cipriani) or movie titles (like: "Hanging for Django", "Sartana does not forgive" or "Emanuelle and the last cannibals").

Additionally this CD shall be a tribute to the Roman Beat Records label, which has been releasing many many soundtracks and other songs of these "crooners” for more than 30 years.

Statistics: Half of the number of titles on this CD (8) has been previously unreleased on CD. The vinyl originals are out of print for many years.
