Über Zucchero

Zucchero Fornaciari brought soul and blues into Italian rock, becoming the country's most successful artist on the international stage. With a gravelly, gospel-soaked voice, he collaborated with everyone from Luciano Pavarotti to Eric Clapton and Miles Davis. Hits like Senza una donna, re-recorded as a duet with Paul Young, made him a fixture on European charts, and his blend of Po Valley grit and global musicianship set him apart from his peers.
