Renzo Arbore e i
suoi Swing Maniacs

The Swing Maniacs Orchestra accompanies
Renzo Arbore on his recently-issued CD “Tonite Renzo Swing”, which
features a fun, all-Italian repertoire of “spaghetti swing” taking us
back to the songs of Natalino Otto, Alberto Rabagliati, Ernesto Bonino
and other pro-American revolutionaries from the period before and
after the Second World War. “It’s the music I heard as a small child
but with the sounds I listened to in my youth”, says Arbore. The music
on his new CD with the Swing Maniacs includes a rockabilly number by
Brian Setzer, two ballads by Modugno ( “Piove” and “Stay here with me
- Resta cu’mme”) and covers a range of styles from traditional jazz to
the Charleston, boogie, the Platters and the authentic Arbore style of
the seventies, when his “bad habit” of reinterpreting Italian swing
was already evident in his work with the Barilla Boogie Band on the TV
show “Quelli della Notte”.
