5.0 out of 5 stars Best CD from this Italian acapella group to date., March 23, 1999

By 

Wendy Perrotta ([e-mail]) (Boston, MA) - See all my reviews

I first experienced this group while channel surfing on cable. They were performing on a live concert on the Italian TV channel RA1. I've been a fan ever since.

Their first album "Le Regazze" blends pop, rap, reggae and 40's style vocal jazz, primarily cover songs. This CD is a bit uneven but there are some gems so it is worth a listen.

The group followed with "Strumenti" which is, as the title suggests, with instruments. This CD is primarily original material and finds the group developing a much more definative sound. They touch on African, pop and jazz rhythms with beautiful harmonies and a minimum intrusion of instruments.

Their latest self-titled release is acapella and once again mostly original material, but they still haven't gotten reggae out of their system as evidenced by their dead-on rendition of Bob Marley's "Jammin'." The infectious "Quello Che Vuoi" has hit written all over it. The CD includes a multimedia component...which is the video to "Quello Che Vuoi" as well as some behind the scenes looks at the singers...unfortunately all in Italian. But who cares. The music is great and if you need a translation go buy and Italian-English dictionary! I just ordered the Christmas CD and I'm looking forward to receiving it soon.

The group has a website, neripercaso.com, which is also in italian. Unfortunately, no tour schedule is available on the website or anywhere else that I can find.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cool Italian Soul, June 14, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Neri Per Caso (Audio CD)

Neri per Caso created a CD just as strong and delightful as their past ones. The first two tracks are excellent, and all the others are great as well. My only problem was the CD's length, around 40 minutes total. But regardless it is well worth the money! While the songs themselves will end, you will find yourselves humming the tunes, even trying to sing along in Italian! Catchy, uplifting, beautiful, this CD is a must buy for those who just love a cappella.

5.0 out of 5 stars PUERTO RICO LOVES NERI PER CASO!!!, February 1, 2001

By 

Rosita (CHICAGO, IL USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Neri Per Caso (Audio CD)

NERI PER CASO...BRAVO ITALIA!!! I'M FROM PUERTO RICO AND LOVE ITALIAN MUSIC. "NERI PER CASO" ACTUALLY THOUGHT ME HOW TO SING IN ITALIAN. I CAN'T BELIEVE I CAN SING ALONG WITH THE GROUP. THE SONGS ARE GREAT AND I DANCE/SING TO THIS CD AT HOME, WORK AND WHILE WORKING-OUT. A MUST HAVE... I WISH I COULD FIND ANY TYPE OF "MUSIC VIDEOS" FROM THIS GROUP AND WATCH THEM PERFORM. I LOVE THE SONG "COSA C'E TRA NOI". BEST OF LUCK....
