Sara Serpa: Mobile
by AAJ Italy Staff
Di questo lavoro della cantante portoghese Sara Serpa, collaboratrice fra gli altri di Greg Osby, Ran Blake e Danilo Perez, colpisce immediatamente - noi italiani, almeno - la citazione da Pavese presente in seconda di copertina.

Sara Serpa: Mobile
by C. Michael Bailey
