Jerry Bergonzi: Rigamaroll

Read "Rigamaroll" reviewed by Angelo Leonardi

I 10 CD nel CD-Player di... Daniel Levin

La prima volta che ho ascoltato questo disco, sono ritornato sui primi tredici secondi di “Trunk" almeno una trentina di volte prima di passare al brano successivo. Incredibilmente denso e fluido allo stesso tempo.
