American Italian Style - The Hits And More [ORIGINAL

American Italian Style - The Hits And More [ORIGINAL RECORDINGS REMASTERED] 2CD SET

During the 1950s, it seemed that, with a few exceptions, all of the top male vocalists in the United States were of Italian-American extraction and one look over Lou Monte's list of recordings it is clear that he certainly falls into that category. Lou Monte's first two records caused a stir, especially the dramatic "A Baby Cried" and later when he turned the Italian lights on New Orleans with his Anglo-Calabrese working of "Darktown Strutters' Ball". Lou added his magic formula to his version of "Italian Huckle-Buck" but perhaps his best loved and best known hit came in the form of "Lazy Mary". Also included is a special bonus track at the end of disc 1 in the form of "Dominick The Donkey" which is outside the timeframe of this set. The song was one of many novelty tracks that Lou cut and it has been included quite simply due to Chris Moyles & Dominic Byrne of UKs BBC Radio 1 fame championed it to become Christmas No. 1, sadly it only reached No. 3 in the end, however it still stands as Lou's only British chart entry.
