An italian boy like me MUST know Pino Daniele,a singer from Naples (my city,my love).Pino is famous for his napolitan slang song,full of emotions,and his italian songs,that have got sensations and a kind of love for the music.With his jazz-blues have conquered our hearts,and in 2004 he comes back with this LP called "Passi D'Autore".Beautiful songs,like the single "Pigro",a song dedicated to all the lazy people.This is a perfect mix of romantic words and guitar,and the hook is beautiful ("I Need Youuu..I Need Yoouuu...").That sounds like old Daniele,when songs was in napolitan slang.We listen also the dedication to Maradona,yes,the football champion,in "Tango Della Buena Suerte".We listen an ultraromantic Pino also in "Bella Da Vivere",song with blues points.

Pino Daniele stikes back with his consuete beautiful album.Italy is shining...

I saw (and heard) Pino Daniele for the first time on MTV in Rome. I was immediately hooked. Went out that day to buy this album and brought it back with me to the US and have been turning all my friends on to his sound.

One need not speak Italian to understand what the the songs mean. Pino's music transcends language barriers. The heart translates what the brain can not.

We first heard Pino Daniele in 2002 in Erice, Sicily. His CD "Medina" quickly became the anthem of our family's 3 month stay. We wore grooves into the CD, and were disappointed to find that Pino Daniele's music was not available in the US. Until I discovered it was, through Amazon. Passi D'Autore is more "pop" than Medina, with less of the interesting Middle Eastern overtones. But his lush arrangements and vocals, and just the melodic sound of his Italian words, bring back great memories of Italy.

EXUCSE ME BUT I HAVE MISS MY PASS SO I'M GOIN TO REWRITE EVERY REVIEW

Saw him sing this album near Florence this year. An artist taking risks and at the peak of his writing skills. Melodic, delightful.

I was a big fan of Pino Daniele in the early 80's with all his association with jazz musicians.I stopped listening to his music for a long time ( too commecial , too pop , too rock !) I run and bought this cd , thinking that with a band like this ( Peter Erskine trio ) this can only be great...... ! well for my disapointment his voice has tremendisly weaken ? ! the music is great , great arangement , good solos , but he is realy strugling with his voice on that project . it's a bit sad !
