Reviews

Cutiacumuzichii Dec 18, 2021
Un interpret de valoare și care a avut mare succes la începutul anilor 70. O voce foarte carismatică și un mod de interpretare care mă trimite spre Harry Belafonte și chiar Nat King Cole. Piese foarte populare, unele prelucrări folclorice, compoziții proprii sau preluări ale unor piese de succes. Am văzut multe discuri cu interpretare în limba germană, pentru că a avut mare succes și acolo. Nu ratați discurile cu Roger Whittaker!
