Gino Palatino

"Vendetta a Parigi" is wonderfully sleazy track from 1982 by Jean Soullier (aka Gino Palatino), a Frenchman singing in Italian. The lyrics grace the back of the cover and here is a rough English translation of a French translation that I had google do for me. Just scroll down to the comments to get a gist of the lyrics. This one was also featured in podcast 2.



Gino Palatino - Vendetta a Parigi

Range

"Give Me" by Range is a long and funky groove with luscious tremolo strings and punchy bass. The first break is a wonderful disco composition and every time I hear it I am teased into awaiting the chorus. It takes a minute for the vocals to kick in but it is well worth the wait. The team that put this together included Paul Mazzolini, Paul Micioni, and Pierluigi Giombini. Mazzolini, better known as Gazebo, has been featured here before and has an impressive roster of releases throughout the 1980s and beyond. Paul Micioni did some work on Gazebo's "Masterpiece" as well as on Gary Low's "Forever, Tonight And All My Life" and "La Colegiala." Giombini, in turn, also worked with Gazebo on the timeless "I Like Chopin." I featured "Give Me" on podcast 02, check it out there too.
