3rd studio album by Zucchero released as 'Zucchero Fornaciari' follows one year after Zucchero & The Randy Jackson Band, and with this Zucchero is back as primary songwriter and composer. Track #3 is written by Gino Paoli, track #5 by Alberto Salerno and track #8 is co-written by Salerno and Zucchero. Bassist Randy Jackson is the only recurring musician from the predecessor.
This is simply one of his better albums. The style is his trademark: a combo of soul pop and blues, and then I simply prefer him singing in Italian, which he sort of forgot later on as he became an international star.
Recommended.
