Free Music Notes for Italian Favorites/More Italian Favorites

Free Music Review: Never too much Italian favorites!
Hit: 5 Stars

Issuing "Italian Favorites / More Italian Favorites" (two original LPs on 1 CD; 26 tracks; 79 min; all at surprisingly low price) Universal Music Enterprises went towards the expectations of Connie's fans which haven't had enough luck to buy Pendulum's separate CD editions of her early Italian recordings. This CD completes also Bear Family's incomplete (but expensive) collection of Connie's 1950s and early 1960s recordings (boxes "White sox..." and "Kissin', twistin'..."). One ought to have hope that Collectables won't cut in the middle and will continue reissuing the remaining Connie's `Italian' LPs (including Italian version of "Movie Greats Of The 60's" never issued in the USA).
However, "Italian Collection, vol. I & II" is still available on the market, but as a compilation of songs taken from various Connie's LPs it may not satisfy everyone. Especially that it doesn't bring to you leading Italian hits: "O Sole Mio", "Santa Lucia", "Torna A Surriento", "Funiculi, Funicula", "Scapricciatiello". All of them you can find right here, together with other twenty hits.
The quality of all recordings is high, for the first time I have found bass in these songs. But this warm, natural sound (compare it with metallic, pitchy and edgy sound on Bear Family discs!) was dearly paid: all low frequency distortions (not rare on this CD, e.g. blows into microphone, etc.) will punch you in the most unexpected moments.
When you adjust volume on your amplifier while listening to the first song ("Comm'e Bella A Stagione"), you will probably need to decrease it during the second. This subjective feeling of unequalized level of recordings will return during the playback of track no. 10 ("Do You Love Me Like You Kiss Me").
Worth mentioning are also the spelling mistakes found on the cover (in the titles of songs no. 3: should be "Arrivederci Roma", and no. 26: correctly is "The Loveliest Night Of The Year").
Despite all, hurry up and buy immediately!

Italian Favorites/More Italian Favorites Poster

Born Concetta Rosa Maria Franconero, Connie Francis was one of the most successful female artists of the 50s and 60s. These two albums, originally released on the MGM label, are two of her best "internationally-themed" recordings. "Sings Italian Favorites" went as high as #4 on the Billboard Pop Albums chart when released, and the single "Mama" hit #8 on the Pop Singles chart. "More Italian Favorites" hit #9.
