...a Plugged-in fest?

Oh, great!  :D

Here is my little contribution.

I can understand that to most of you "Genova Per Noi" will be absolutely unknown, but if there is someone else who lives (or lived) in Italy, he/she will confirm it's one of the most popular Italian songs. It was written by the great Paolo Conte in 1975, and since then many Italian singers sang this wonderful song.

It seems right to me to give you also the opportunity to listen to the original song, in a video by Paolo Conte himself:

I've always thought to this song as an "urban blues" song, so this is my version.

Enjoy!

Yeah, this is great. You even honky tonked it up a little bit and I liked the Hammond additions too.

Cool!

Very cool blues-y version. Lots of great stuff going on there, I particularly enjoyed the organ keys. liked what they were doing a lot.
