"IN THE 1950'S ITALY'S DOMENICO MEDUGNO CROSSED OVER TO AMERICAN POP MUSIC WITH HIS HUGE #1 HIT "VOLARE" (THE SONG WAS FULLY IN ITALIAN!)THEN KYO SAKAMOTO CROSSED OVER FROM JAPAN WITH ANOTHER #1 HIT(FULLY IN JAPANESE) "SUKIYAKI".IN THE EARLY 1960'S A LOVE STORY STARRING SUZANNE PLESHETTE TITLED "ROME ADVENTURE" FEATURED A BEAUTIFUL SONG, WHICH I LOVED FROM THE MOMENT I HEARD IT! THAT WAS "AL DI LA". IT WAS THE SECOND SONG (FULLY IN ITALIAN) TO CROSS OVER AND HIT THE AMERICAN TOP CHARTS. THE SONG WAS LATER A HIT FOR CONNIE FRANCIS AS WELL, ONLY SHE TRANSLATED THE WORDS IN ENGLISH.IF YOU'VE NEVER HEARD OF EMILIO PERRICOLI THEN YOU'RE IN FOR A TREAT WHEN YOU HEAR THIS BEAUTIFUL BALAD! BUY IT!"
