TY for sending the link Thomas. An exceptional voice, bearing some shades of Enrico Caruso.

perfection

[zinkamilanov]

Interesting that this version seems to have a march beat to it(OK tell me I'm wrong)pointing out that the gigolo was once a war hero.

[Corrie121]

[AndrewPineOrchestra]

Daniele Serra was an italian tenor, but he was born in Argentina, for this you can find Daniel, without the e, in some bio.

@xilpix Why did I imagine that was the case? Thanks for the info!

Thanks, you've got me hooked. I really like him. I found a couple more songs of his and just posted them. Unfortunately I don't have

the nice period posters to go with them. But the singing is still great.

Since my original comment, I have found this clip to be addictive. I listen to it at least once a day. Such depth, such passion, such a glorious presentation! Unquestionably the most outstanding version of this song I have ever heard. I would like to thank you once again for posting this exquisite piece.

[olderngod]

Breathtaking! I'm only just learning about Serra -- I believe it will be a worthwhile project! Thanks to you and lindyhoppers.

[Ichkovitch]

Caruso meets Louis Prima. Very nice.

[merrihew]

Thanks for the referral from your most recent posting. A wonderful song and so many great versions available.

Definitely one of the very best renditions of this song I've heard.

This is great! It is wonderful to hear this much beloved song being sung with so much emphasis and passion. Thanks.
