A blend of the pop-rock, soul and blues genres without neglecting melodic roots are the magical ingredients of Zucchero’s music
|
The song, set in the rhythm’n’blues genre, was presented at the 1985 Sanremo Song Festival; it only ranked second-to-last yet it climbed to the top of the hit parade charts |
This song was composed along with Gino Paoli; it blends together soul, rhythm’n’blues and Italian traditional music that was behind Zucchero’s success
|
Irreverent in its lyrics, overwhelming in its riff, the song is a sort of Manifesto of the verve that distinguishes the artist from Emilia
|
The result of a joint-venture with De Gregori (who composed the lyrics), the song softly unravels lyrics that bring to mind settings of the past
|
The title-track of the album "Miserere" witnessed the artist alongside Pavarotti:a unique duo envisaging the soul sound of “Sugar” and that of the opera tenor |
Contained inside the album called “Spirito diVino” that basically contained rhythmical music, the lyrical “Così celeste” instead had a nearly dolce stil novo flair |
The only Italian who ever managed to make a name for himself in the field of soul music, Zucchero is often compared to Joe Cocker for his performing style
