Biography

Italian singer-songwriter Paolo Conte is famous for his gravelly voice – often compared to singer-poets such as Tom Waits and Leonard Cohen - his elegant and seductive rhythms, melodies and lyrics that sometimes veer towards hot jazz or bar-room tangos. It is a music of memories - half true, half dreams, poetic fragments of colors, images and fantasies.

By the time of his fourth album, Paris Milonga, Paolo Conte had perfectly defined his musical vision and stage persona, a mixture of weary seen-it-all cabaret piano player, humorous portraitist, and late-night philosopher. Alone at his piano or backed up by a small jazz ensemble, through melancholic ballads, stomping boogies, or sensual Latin rhythms, Conte goes over his usual repertoire of tired, slow burning, middle-age affairs and musings on the life of nightclub musicians and regulars. Conte is in spectacular form in Paris Milonga, a record that features at least four of his classics: "Alle Prese con una Verde Milonga," an homage to both anonymous musicians and to legendary Argentinean composer Atahualpa Yupanqui; "Parigi," that does for Paris what "Genova per Noi" did for Genoa; "Via con Me," arguably Conte's most famous song, soon adopted by Roberto Benigni for his standup comedy show, and "Boogie," a catalog of nightclub types and mating rituals that implausibly manages to be both hilarious and sexy. It matters little that, for instance, "Boogie" and "Via con Me" are essentially the same song with somewhat different lyrics. Conte's eye has seldom been this funny and poetic at the same time. He can do no wrong in Paris Milonga, as he sits back against his familiar jazzy grooves and delivers one memorable line after another (such as "I was looking for a woman and I found myself a comic opera"), in his ineffable detached style. A great album and a terrific introduction to one of Italy's best loved and most unique performers. ~ Mariano Prunes

Another stylish release from Paolo Conte, 1982's Appunti Di Viaggio offers little in the way of surprises, but more than compensates with Conte's customary class to spare. At this time in his career, Conte was an established star in Italy, both as a composer and a live performer, and was soon to achieve international renown touring in Europe. While Appunti Di Viaggio does not include any major hits such as "Via con Me" or "Bartali," most of the material on this album would become concert staples. Indeed, rather than concise pop songs, these eight pieces are freer, jazzy ruminations that would ultimately benefit from a looser, more energetic live approach. Still, even in the original form presented in this collection, Conte standards such as "Fuga All'inglese," "Hemingway," "Diavolo Rosso," or "Lo Zio" offer ample evidence of their creator's exquisite musical vision.
