”The
most cursory glance down the roster of America’s most popular troubadours,
immediately reveals one prime and inescapable fact, the majority are of
Italian-American extraction. Caruso, Sinatra, Como, Prima, Monte, Bennett,
Darin…the list seems endless. “Why”, many an eager bobby-soxer has asked “are
so many of the great singers Italian?” Why, indeed? The answer is, of course,
to step into the history and folkways of a people that it would take thousands
of words to explain. But, we can briefly say, it’s because of their
warm-hearted, unrestrained humour and passion for life. As a part of this good
company we can find “THE GOOD FELLAS”. Better known as the “GANGSTERS OF
SWING”, dressed in old fashioned, strictly Italian made, double breast Capone
suites, wearing two tone shoes, laughing at life like everyone does deep down
in the land of pizza and mandolino. To be a “good fellow” means to be a true
gentleman, loyal and respectful of strong heritage and traditions. It means to
smell of the full Italian flavour, while always hungry for a lady’s kiss among
the scene of a Neapolitan moonlight. What they do best is the well-known, truly
genuine, Italian way of entertaining known the World over. Swingin and jokin’
all the time with the audience in that half Italian, half English, macaroni
language. This band truly swings from “Oh Marie”, “Tu vuo fa l’americano” to
Basie’s “Tickle Toe”, and from Haley’s “A rockin’ little tune” to Lou Monte’s
Italian version of Fats Domino’s classic Rock’n’Roll “I’m Walkin”. They walk
the junction between Italian American and Afro American music, follow the steps
of the giants of swing era, spacing from a shuffle beat to a Philly houserock
to Texas blues. Like many of the Italian citizens of the World War II age, the
GOOD FELLAS feel the “American Dream”, falling in love with the American
brashness, cleverness, then impossible madness, but never really thinkin’ to
leave the Country of sea and sun, their food, their roots.”
