20 pop songs recorded in Italian, or at least in English with heavily Italian-oriented themes, for RCA in the 1950s and 1960s. This is Italian (or Italo-American) pop at its most middle-of-the-road and sentimental, which could serve as either a recommendation or a warning. Includes selections by Lou Monte, Perry Como, Sergio Franchi, Domenico Modugno (the massive hit "Volare"), and even a number by Sophia Loren, among others. ~ Richie Unterberger

Includes liner notes by Mike Omansky.

All tracks have been digitally remastered.

Compilation producer: Paul Williams.

Bloweyelashwish
Lovesliescrushing Bloweyelashwish CD  (1995)

Viva Italia! Festive Italian Classics music CDs
CD $13.89  3.5 stars
The amount of bands My Bloody Valentine inspired (and sometimes more than inspired) throughout the '90s is near endless, but there's no question that some took that inspiration to a better place than others. Lovesliescrushing easily took it to one of the best; with all the chaotic yet beautiful frenzy of Kevin Shields at his most creative, yet with its own mysterious, dreamy goth air, the duo created an amazing sonic bomb with Bloweyelashwish. Using only a four-track recorder, multi-instrumentalist (and Cocteau Twins-inspired art designer) Cortez whipped a frenetic, echoed, and howling mass of feedback and noise at once terrifying and terrifyingly pretty, with only the occasional fragment like "Teardrop" and "Butterfly" hinting at calmer waters. Moments like the opening stuttering chug of "Iwantyou," his voice serenely intoning the titular wish over the noise, the sprawl of "Plume," and the heartbreaking ...

CD $10.45  
All songs written or co-written by Neil Innes and/or Vivian Stanshall. The delightfully clever humor of the Bonzo Dog Band's prior releases almost totally eludes the group on this record. Songs here still parody familiar styles, but generally do so in a leaden and unengaging manner. A number of the selections here burlesque the late ...
