Wonderful recording at a time when both were superb, truly the real voice of
Gigli , he wasn't crying or sobbing or play acting...here he's a true dedicated
man of opera........thanks for the memories.

La madre di tutte "Le Boheme" ! Insuperabile !!!!

This is beautiful!
-
It's common knowledge that Gigli was the heir to Caruso's thrown. If Caruso was the King, Gigli was the Prince of tenors. Albanese is in a class by herself - legendary!
-
You cannot really compare Jussi and Caruso, one a Lyric and one a Spinto, very different types of voices but yes you can compare the technique's of both and both great but Caruso was the king of tenors we all know that. I never heard Caruso but I did hear JB in the house and in same roles I preferred Tucker with his big rich Spinto voice and Gigli was of course was warmer then JB being Italian and singing with great emotion and beauty and a sweet voice. The sweet as sugar lyric tenor voice .

@cavaradosi1 He is mic'd too much. He doesn't have good technique.
-
@cavaradosi1 The tenor you mentioned Vittorio. Is mic'd much of the time...which means there is something wrong with his technique.

@seektheforce & mactopolis.
You guys must be a voice conosiuers. In my humble opinion Jussi is the next best thing after Caruso. Caruso first , Jussi 2nd. He got scored lower only becoz of his Italian diction. Other than that, he is great to be in the league of Caruso, Gigli, Pavarotti & Domingo. Hey Misters have you heard of young Tenor Vittorio Grigolo? He is a light lyric tenor. He sings descent what do you think of him. I know is no Caruso but he has a unique style & good technique. Thanks.

WOW what a brilliant heavenly tenor voice

Jussi was very very good for the type and sound of his instrument..I personally did not like his sound in most of his songs/recordings
