Emanuela Campana - Fortissimo (2017)

A sweetly sultry singer -- and one whose style will grab you nicely, even if you don't understand Italian! The style here is laidback and jazzy -- with a warm glow that comes from some very well-crafted arrangements -- sometimes with a bit of bossa in the rhythms, sometimes kind of a soulful 70s vibe -- often very mellow, but in a way that lets the voice of Emanuela Campana really open up and glow! The set features a great remake of Morricone's classic "Metti Una Sera A Cena" -- plus "D'Improvviso", "Cu'Mme", "Brividi", "El La Chiamano Estate (Papik disco rmx)", "All Around The World", and "La Voglia La Pazzia".
