A hidden gem, November 19, 2003
This review is from: Greatest Hits (Audio CD)
It is a real shame that this album only has one review, so I thought I would correct that. As a Steve Vai, Steve Morse ( anything guitar instrumental actually ) you can tell this is not my usual listening "fodder", but you need some light and dark in any collection, and this is a fantastic collection of songs which I put on if I am in company. There is not a single song that you will fail to either sing along to, or be moved by. I am not a great one for listing each track and saying this is very mellow, this has a great guitar solo etc, but in this album you have it all. I should say that Zucchero has one GREAT voice. Out of the three hundred or so albums I have, this could well be the one album I would take with me if I was limited to just one ... that is a huge compliment to its variety and yes, I agree with the previous reviewer ...GREAT FUN Brilliant

Upbeat and fun, March 9, 2000
This review is from: Greatest Hits (Audio CD)
This is a great, cheerful CD. It's full of upbeat songs, although I love the beautiful melody of "Diamante. Zucchero's music is certainly as beautiful as Bocelli's, but in a lighter way.

what a find!, November 26, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Greatest Hits (Audio CD)
I bought this cd on faith since I only knew one of the songs listed. I'm so glad that I did! Zucchero blends an intense and passionate voice with unusual but compelling lyrics. Give it a try. And don't underestimate the power of this cd for romantic mood-setting. Wow!

Super Zucchero, February 16, 2008
This review is from: Greatest Hits (Audio CD)
I love this CD by Zucchero. If you like jazzy/bluesy music try it out. He has a great voice and music. Enjoy.

I wanted Italian lyrics, but it's a great album, February 4, 2009
This review is from: Greatest Hits (Audio CD)
What can I say? Some students of Italian in a group I belong to had gone to a Zucchero concert and just raved about him. So -- I bought his Best of, thinking I could add it to my collection of Italian popular music, which I hope is helping me a little with my Italian accent. Alas, when I got the CD, I realized Zucchero had taken the very logical step of becoming an English-language pop singer. He's very good, I must say, but I had hoped for Italian lyrics. I will listen to it, of course; he's very talented and does the bluesy thing superbly. A musical genius, definitely.
But this is not Italian. I wish the product description had made this clearer. But that's not his fault, and certainly not a reflection on his genius. I would have bought one of his other albums. In fact, I did. I ordered Oro incenso e birra. I'm looking forward to it.
And oh, his American accent is fabulous! How does he do that?
