Rino Gaetano

Italian singer and songwriter (born in Crotone, Calabria, 29 October, 1950 - Rome, 2 June, 1981), undervalued in life he elicits huge interest especially among young people for the themes of his songs which he used perform with an incomprehensible irony in a historical period which was not prepared to understand him. In his career - began in 1973 by [l=It] Record (label founded by [a=Vincenzo Micocci]) - he had about a dozen of singles (the most famous remains [i]Gianna[/i], written for his sister Anna Gaetano) and 6 albums, the last, [i]E Io Ci Sto[/i] in 1980 on [l=RCA Italiana]. However, today anthologies of his CDs and books about him are bestsellers, as he gained after more than 30 years since his passing the status of a cult artist.
