Don't get me wrong, I am as good a Gino Vannelli fan as anyone! I adore the mans talents. But, I've noticed something about Gino Vannelli and the bands that back him up. They are always very talented musicians and artists in their own right. But has anyone else noticed (to my knowledge at least!) that Gino's has never had a black man in his band? Whazz up Gino, the Consummate renaissance man...
@cgptony11 that way if he has to "let someone go" he will not get a lawsuit for being a "racist". He is not a universtiy who wants to shout out how diverse they are. He is putting together a band to back his music. I am sure he has black friends if that makes you sleep better. What about asians, does he need that too. Honestly what a ridiculous observation. that you would bring up.
Mark Craney, the drummer on the original version of this, was an amazing talent and made this album a standard for drumming excellence. He died a few years ago but every time I hear anything off this album I'm stunned at what a great drummer he was. RIP Mark, you were a huge influence on my drumming.
@mamalied OH fuck me too. Mark Craney. Every song he played on was like a drum clinic. My favorite drummer and the driving force behind Gino's finest work "Brother to Brother".His work with Jean Luc and Gino cannot be compared. Long Live MC!!!!
@poopyloo6 More then likely. All singers as they age lose flexability in their vocal chords. They just arent as plyable as they once were. So you have to bring things down after a while. You think Tom Jones still sings "It's not unusual" in the same key? Plus if he's (GV) in Vegas, he's more then likely doing a show every night. He might be bringing a few songs down just to be able to handle the long haul of a 2 month engagement.
Gino's music changed my life. for the past 30 years since I first discovered Gino, noone has come close to possessing the awesome, out of this world talent that Gino exhibits years after year. This tune appaloosa is channeled from another world.. I have never heard anything like it before or since.
. Gino is the musical phenomenon of our life time.! Check out Gino singing Gipsy days on you tube to get blown away even more.
Appaloosa album was first introduced to me by my dad as an adolescent . all my headbanger friends thought i was a freak in the 80's as a teen cause I always listened to my three favorite songs, I just want to stop, the wheels of life, & the river must flow. I still know who the real freaks were every time I hear Gino's music. he's the best.
I was introduced to Gino's music particularly the Brother to brother album when I was only about 10 years old and even then knew his sound would influence the way I appreciate all music. He is a true musical genius......
Te felicito IFUNGA...Sabes? jamás me canso de Gino, el siempre se esta renovando....Lo vi hace unos años en Montreal y solo quiero volver a verlo...su show es EXPECTACULAR. Saludos desde Chile.
Thanks for sharing...I saw Gino at the Montreal Jazz Fest in July, and can't wait to hear him with the Portland band in November (Sandin Wilson, Randy Porter and Alan Hinds).
Love Gino!!!! music is shit today except for his 2nd cousin, looks like him except the hair, can sings high and low like him too. check out his cuz{scott brooklyn)ruvolo I love them both but scott does everything himself---sings ,writes,plays all instruments,guitar,bass,drums,horns,you gotta hear him onmyspace music.
A fan since the first Vanelli Brothers album, if ever a kind of music fitted the term FUSION, this is it, a perfect blend of jazz, rock, romanticism, pop, put together by spectacular arrangements and a gifted voice.
Thanks so much for posting this I haven't seen him live since the early 90's and would love to see him again, but he never tours near my town...I wish he would do a small club tour.. like the smooth jazz artists do...
He would sell out two nights at Rams Head in Annapolis, MD for sure! Hopefully I will get to see him play near me oneday again! Thanks again for posting this so we can see and hear him live in a current show!
We were at this show(Suncoast Hotel) front row center. As a matter of fact, we were there same seats all three nights. Gino (Bravo)and Co. were outstanding. Thank you scottbn for adding this video. Lisa and Denea
He is playing 3 nights in New Orleans at Harrahs Casino November 14, 16 and 17. Got my tickets and he does not hit the US often...take advantage of this!
After all the cudo's what can one say! I saw him in Cambridge Ontario Canada, maybe population 60,000 now I live in Shanghai China population 17M there is noone as good as Gino here...Gino come to Shanghai and show them what knowledge, skill, ability is all about!
I so old (damn that hurts) I saw Gino in Chicago during his Bro to Bro tour. That's the late '70's. I've seen a lot of performers since and that show was still the best I've ever seen. Gino still rocks!
I'll tell you this: If there ARE any vids of "Fly Into This Night" that someone can post, I will have died and gone to heaven. That is one of my fave early Gino Vannelli songs. LOVE YOU, GINO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
anybody who was there was recording , i took a picture of gino and appeared u blocked everyone one of the good shots i tried to take of gino ur cute but gino is the fine ass one ,sexy as always ,come back to new orleans or come to mississippi either one is ok love y'all , celeste

I've met his bass player Sandin Wilson in Las Vegas and Chicago. He is a really nice guy with lots of talent.
Great to see his nephew in the forums. :)
I hope him and his brothers tour again.
