GINO VANNELLI-Storm at sunup

Another great song by the amazing Canadian singer Gino Vannelli. Enjoy.
Here the lyrics

If I could choose
I'd calm this dawn
But the storm is me insensible and free
Now that you know I've come here to go
You're suddenly sad you've been mine

Oh how the lust for love is blind
Now that you see the man that is me
You're suddenly glad I'll be gone
Oh how the quest for self is strong

Ever heard him live?

[greeneyesmexico]

unfortunately only on DVD and TV shows. He must be very amazing when he performs. Back in the day and now.

I just love his work and music. It was exactly who I was in the 70's a great voice and fusion jazz. I played this song and Love of My Life over and over. Thanks for posting.

[greeneyesmexico]

you're welcome,. I agree Gino is a genius.

[btinsley1]

remember when artists used poetic license and tight instrumentation in their compositions like this?

what happened to our music ?

this is absoultely brilliant

brilliant i tell you....

If you really want a hoot, check out a track called "Seduction" on the "Space:1999" Year 2 Soundtrack. It was written by Derek Wadsworth in 1976 for a dance sequence in an episode titled "One Moment Of Humanity" and ( by the admission of Wadsworth, himself ) is based directly on this track. The only difference is the exact melody...otherwise it's a complete rip-off ! I'm surprised there was never a lawsuit.

Those lush orchestra sounds on this track? Polyphonic synths hadn't been out yet. They're all overdubs, painstakingly crafted by brother Joe. Simply amazing.

One of my favorite albums of all time.

@cruptbside There was no orchestra when I first heard this, It was just Gino, his brother Joe, a percussionist named Diddo and I believe drummer Mark Craney! It sounded, even more richer than this recording. They brought the house down in Chicago at The Civic Opera house.

[MrGianc]

Un capolavoro di canzone,con un cambio di voce tra basso e alto stupendo.

[BiPolarBS]

1975 Detroit. I was 10 years old and caught this song and artist (thanks WJZZ). Storm At Sunup is the first vinyl LP I bought after bringing home my Aiwa direct drive turntable with strobe and a front loading mechanism. I still have it too.

Where am I going?

[MrGianc]

I didn't aspect such piece of music from Gino V. This sound remember me also Santana in his album "Borboletta"! Anyway Vannelli is still to be studied his sound and voice I just love it!!!
