Here is the brand new cd by ROBI ZONCA and his Band intitled :"YOU ALREADY KNOW"
Coproduced by Robi Zonca and the great Antonello "Jantoman" Aguzzi (from the pop group Elio e le Storie Tese) the album contains
12 tracks, 10 written by Robi, 1 by Robi and Stefano Galli (the other guitar player in the band) and Robi Zonca's reinterpretation of the classic Lennon-McCartney's "One after 909" in a bluesy-shuffled key and with an horns section.
My real goal is to play the music I feel. I do not try to play like the great black masters did, I do not try to play the tradition, I do not try to play a new kind of blues, I do not try to recuperate sounds from the past or something...... I just sit down, write the songs playing in my head, and then stand up and play it with my band . That's it!
Some songs from "YOU ALREADY KNOW" were brodcasted by BBC radio in U.K. after 3 days the album was avaiable! On sunday june 26 Blue Ears radio http://www.blueears.com/
