Let’s go back to a time when tunes mattered and join Annunzio Paolo Mantovani as he serenades us with a host of wonderful timeless melodies.
Better known to millions as simply Mantovani , he was a global superstar in an age before rock n roll.
AVID’s latest addition in the Essential Collection series features many of the great man's finest tunes including the million seller Charmaine which introduced the world to the “tumbling” and “cascading” string effect that was to become Mantovani’s enduring trademark.
Still remembered today via a worldwide fan club it’s time to sample the delights of the man with the single name that influenced a generation of single name artists from Madonna to Prince, Sting to Bono, Cher and even our very own Morrissey!
Relax and let the music wash over you taking you to another time when melody was king.
